Figure 2 Effects of intermittent fasting on lipid metabolism in mice. (A) Levels of serum lipid include total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (n=12). (B) Concentration of liver TG (n=15). (C) Liver hematoxylin and eosin stained sections. Scale bar: 50 μm. (D) Expression of genes involved in lipid synthesis, transport, and lipolysis in the liver (n=3). Data were presented as mean±SD. Differences between groups were statistically analyzed using 1-way analysis of variance. * P<0.05, ** P<0.01, *** P<0.001.
