Lipolysis- a, lipogenesis- b and fatty acid oxidation-related c gene expression in adipose tissue. Lipolysis genes = lipoprotein lipase (LPL), adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), comparative gene identified 58 (CGI58), hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) and monoglyceride lipase (MGL). Lipogenesis-related genes = cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36), sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 1 (SREBP1c), diacylglycerol acyltrasnferase (DGAT1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR γ), adipose differentiation related protein (ADRP) and fatty acid synthase (FAS). Fatty acid oxidation genes = peroxisome proliferator activated receptor α (PPARα), acyl-CoA oxidase 1 (ACOX1) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1α). All conditions are as in Fig. 1 (n = 10 pigs/ group). ns represent no significant difference between each group
