Hepatic UGT1A regulation in htgUGT1A-WT and SNP mice after high-fat Paigen diet (HFPD) treatment. (A) Hepatic mRNA expression levels of UGT1A isoforms relative to mouse β-actin. In htgUGT1A-WT mice, HFPD treatment led to a significant transcriptional upregulation of all depicted UGT1A isoforms, whereas in the presence of SNPs UGT1A induction was reduced (UGT1A1 and UGT1A9) or absent and remained below those observed in WT carriers. (B) Western blot analysis of hepatic UGT1A3 protein quantity. Higher protein amount was detected in htgUGT1A-WT mice. Graphs are expressed as means ± standard deviation. n.s. not significant; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001.
