represents significant difference across samples for that species
represents for significant difference in human NASH to rat MCD samples. Test statistics calculated conducting the one way ANOVA with Tukey honest significant difference (HSD), with significance define as adjusted p value ≤ 0.05.
Abbreviation: HFD: high fat diet; MCD: methionine and choline deficient; NASH: nonalcoholic steatohepatitis
