LA = lard; LO = linseed oil; SI = 30 mg/kg soybean isoflavone; FADS1 = Fatty acid desaturase 1; FADS2 = Fatty acid desaturase 2; ELOVL2 = fatty acid elongase 2; ELOVL5 = fatty acid elongase 5; FAS = fatty acid synthase; LPL = lipoprotein lipase; HMGCR = 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase; CPT1α = carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1α; SREBP-1 = sterol regulatory element binding protein-1.

Treatment, all five diets. LO, dietary LO substituted for half or total LA in the last four diets. SI, dietary linseed oil with or without SI in the last four diets.
