Figure 5From: Unavailability of liver triacylglycerol increases serum cholesterol concentration induced by dietary cholesterol in exogenously hypercholesterolemic (ExHC) ratsFatty acid composition of cholesterol ester in serum and liver of SD and ExHC rats. (A,B) Fatty acid composition of cholesterol ester (CE) in (A) liver and (B) serum of SD/Sea (solid bar) and ExHC (open bar) rats was analyzed with gas chromatography. Values are means ± SEM; n = 5. *p < 0.05. (C,D) Comparison of fatty acid composition between liver CE (dashed line) and serum CE (solid line) in (C) SD rats and (D) ExHC rats.Back to article page
