Fig. 1From: Global investigation of estrogen-responsive genes regulating lipid metabolism in the liver of laying hensEffect of 17β-estradiol on lipid metabolism in chicken. a qRT-PCR analysis of liver APOB mRNA induction in response to 17β-estradiol. b qRT-PCR analysis of liver APOV1 mRNA induction in response to 17β-estradiol. c Assessment of plasma TG upregulation in response to 17β-estradiol. d A liver tissue section stained with oil red O and hematoxylin. All error bars represent SEM, n = 6 for the control group and n = 8 for the 17β-estradiol treatment group, **p < 0.01. Chicken injected with 17β-estradiol at 8.0 mg / kg of body weight were used in this partBack to article page
