Effect of LC on expression of Apelinand ApjmRNA (on days 0, 14 and 28 of experiment) and protein (on day 28 of experiment) in cardiac muscle of HF/HC diet fed diabetic rats. Rats were fed with regular chow diet (control) or HF/HC diet for 5 weeks (diabetic). HF/HC fed rats were treated with LC (300 mg/kg/day) from the first day of diabetes confirmation for 14 or 28 days (Diabetic+LC, n=5/group). A. ApelinmRNA level, B. Apelin protein level, C. ApjmRNA level, and D. Apj protein level. Data are expressed as means ± SE. Different letters (a, b and c) demonstrate significant differences among groups on each day at P<0.05. LC; L-carnitine and HF/HC; High fat/high carbohydrate.
