Fig. 2From: Dietary sodium acetate and sodium butyrate improve high-carbohydrate diet utilization by regulating gut microbiota, liver lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, and inflammation in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides)Effects of sodium acetate and sodium butyrate on the liver lipid metabolism of largemouth bass. A Liver morphology; HE staining of liver (scale bars, 500 μm); Oil- red O staining of liver (scale bars, 500 μm). B Relative Oil- red O area in liver. C Hepatic TG levels. D Hepatic T-CHO levels. E Expression levels of lipogenesis-related genes. F Expression levels of lipolysis-related genes. G and H Protein expression of PPARγ and AMPKα. Values were expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6). a–cDifferent lowercase letters indicate significant differences (P < 0.05). *P < 0.05Back to article page
