Figure 2. Effects of an HC diet on liver lipid metabolism in lactating cows.

Figure 2

(A–D) The lipid synthesis genes involved in sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c, A), fatty acid synthetase (FAS, B), acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1, C), and stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD-1, D) were measured in the liver tissue. (E–I) The lipid catabolism genes involved in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα, E), carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 (CPT-1, F), carnitine palmitoyl transferase-2 (CPT-2, G), liver-fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP, H) and acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO, I) were measured in the liver tissue. GAPDH was used as the control. The experiments were repeated three times. Data are presented as the means ± SEM (n = 5/group). *p < 0.05 indicates statistically significant differences when compared with the control group.
