Correction of fatty liver but not diabetes in abJ/abJ;aP2-nSREBP-1c transgenic mice. (a) Gross liver appearance in abJ/abJ;aP2-nSREBP-1c transgenic mice, aP2-nSREBP-1c transgenic mice, and WT mice. (b) Representative liver sections from aP2-nSREBP-1c and abJ/abJ;aP2-nSREBP-1c mice. Original magnification, ×200; scale bars: 100 μm. (c) Liver triglyceride levels. (d) Fatty acid content in liver. (e) ACC activity in liver. (f) Malonyl-CoA levels in liver. (g and h) Plasma glucose and plasma insulin levels, respectively. Error bars indicate the SE; n = 7 for the aP2-nSREBP-1c group, n = 6 for the abJ/abJ;aP2-nSREBP-1c group, and n = 3 for the abJ/abJ group. *P < 0.05, abJ/abJ;aP2-nSREBP-1c vs. aP2-nSREBP-1c mice; P < 0.05, aP2-nSREBP-1c vs. abJ/abJ or abJ/+; #P < 0.05 abJ/abJ;aP2-nSREBP-1c vs. abJ/abJ or abJ/+.
