FIGURE 3.
The effect of SPATA4 on lipid oxidation and serum lipid level. (a) Food intake was measured at 6 and 24 months of age. N = 9. (b) The respiratory quotient (VCO2/VO2) during 48 h in WT and TG old mice was determined by means of metabolic chambers. N = 3. (c) The serum levels of the triglyceride were measured. N = 6. (d) The serum level of the total cholesterol, the ratio of high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C), and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) to total cholesterol (CHO) were shown. N = 6, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01
