Fig. 1From: Catalase deficiency facilitates the shuttling of free fatty acid to brown adipose tissue through lipolysis mediated by ROS during sustained fastingCatalase deficiency decreases the accumulation of lipid in liver during sustained fasting. Liver samples from mice fasted at the indicated time were homogenized, and TG levels were analyzed from A liver and B serum (n = 6). C Liver tissues from mice cryosectioned and stained with ORO. Scale bar represents 20 μm. D Immunoblot analysis of liver tissue. Protein expression using whole-cell lysates with the indicated antibodies (n = 3). E qPCR analysis of FA metabolism-related genes from the liver of mice fed and fasted for 48 h. F β-hydroxybutyrate was analyzed from the serum of mice fasted for indicated time. G GC–MS for total FA of long Chain and VLCFA from liver samples (n = 3). Values represent mean ± SD (n = 3, 4). *P < 0.001 WT 48 h fasting versus KO 48 h of fastingBack to article page
