Lipidomics of liver from WT and Tm6sf2 KO rats. Livers were collected from chow-fed 6-week-old male rats (n = 3/group) after a 16-hour fast. The fatty acid composition of TGs, CEs, PC, and PE were measured and analyzed by LC-MS as described in the Methods section. Fatty acid content was normalized to the amount of proteins, and presented as fold differences between genotypes. Bars indicate means ± SD. Differences between groups were analyzed using the Student unpaired 2-tailed t test. ∗P < .05, ∗∗P < .01. ∗∗∗P < .001. The experiment was repeated twice and the results were similar.
