MSTN knockout increased expression of genes related to bile acid synthesis in the liver of MSTN+/− and WT cattle. (a,b) Expression of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) and sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) mRNA. (c) Expression of CYP7A1 and CYP27A1 protein. ** p < 0.01. WT, wild type; MSTN+/−, MSTN heterozygous deletion.
