Figure 2

Fatty acid distribution in p1 body tissues, expressed as percent of fatty acids normalized to palmitate, with palmitate set at 100%. Black bars represent the Control group, and gray bars the FR group. *p < 0.05 when comparing the two groups. Tissues were from p1 males except for plasma which was pooled males and females. In SC fat (A), oleate was the most prominent fatty acid in both Control and FR groups. In SC Fat, percent of palmitoleate was decreased in FR versus Controls. In liver (B), plasma (C), and muscle (D), palmitate was the most prominent fatty acid, followed by stearate, and then oleate.
