Hepatic expression of genes associated with FA/TG metabolism in HFD-treated Fsp27ΔAd (aKO) and Fsp27F/F (Flox) mice. Expression levels of genes associated with FA uptake/activation and catabolism (A), FA/TG synthesis and lipid coating (B), and CIDE (cell death-inducing DNA fragmentation factor-α-like effector) and related proteins (C). Data were analyzed using the two-tailed Student's t test. *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01; ***, p < 0.001 compared with Flox mice. All values represent the mean ± S.E. n = 6–8/group.
