Influence of LAA intake on the heart. a Cardiac weight. b Cardiomyocyte cell area. Histopathological specimens were observed under a microscope. The number of cells per unit area was measured. c Expression of Myl1 in the excised myocardial tissue. Myl1 expression after LAA intake is presented relative to the expression in the control, which was set as 100%. The data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. *p < 0.05, vs the control group; **p < 0.01, vs the control group; ***p < 0.001, vs the control group. Con: control; LAA: lauric acid; Myl1: myosin light chain
