Hepatic mRNA expression and nuclear protein quantity of nuclear receptors in htgUGT1A-WT and SNP mice after high-fat Paigen diet (HFPD) treatment. (A) Enhanced inhibition of farnesoid X receptor (FXR) mRNA expression level was detected in htgUGT1A-WT mice (58%) compared to htgUGT1A-SNP mice (36%). (B) Western blot analysis of nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) protein levels. Significantly reduced PPARα protein amount was measured in HFPD-treated htgUGT1A-WT, in contrast to unchanged levels in the presence of SNPs. Graphs are expressed as means ± standard deviation. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001.
