Abstract:group. The number of lipid droplets in liver specimens was also lower in the WO and FO groups, and the hepatic triglyceride and total cholesterol levels were decreased in these groups compared with the LSO group. Hepatic mRNA levels of fatty acid synthase, and stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1, which are fatty acid synthesis-related genes, were decreased in the WO and FO groups. No significant differences were observed between the WO and FO groups. Taken together, these results indicate that WO intake inhibits lipid a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
