Characterization of CORT-induced fatty liver and hepatic expression of lipogenic genes and GR. (A) Plasma content of TG. (B) Hepatic content of TG. (C) Histological sections stained with oil-red, scale bar, 100 um. (D) Hepatic mRNA abundance of genes involved in lipogenesis. (E) Protein expression of GR, SREBF1 and SCD. Values are means ± SEM, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared with CON (n = 8).
