Sex-dependent effects on markers of hepatic peroxisomal fatty acid (FA) oxidation. mRNA level of (A) enoyl-CoA hydratase (Ehhadh), (B) peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5 (Pex5) and (C) acox-acyl coA oxidase (Acox1) in male and female WT and UCP1 KO groups fed HF diets and EPA supplemented HF diets. (A–C) Data are expressed as mean ± SEM, n = 4–6; means without a common letter (a, b) differ in each male or female group; means with any common letter (a or b vs. ab) are not different from each other. NS indicates no significant post-hoc comparisons.
