Figure 6

Response of the LPL system to fasting and re-feeding in Angptl4^−/−mice . Epididymal adipose tissue from the same mice as described in Figure 5 was cut out and analyzed for LPL activity and mRNA abundance for LPL, ANGPTL4, and GPIHBP1. The levels of mRNA were calculated relative to cyclophilin mRNA. Statistically significant (p < 0.05) differences are indicated by: a when comparing Angptl4^−/− and WT for the same nutritional state b when comparing fasted and ad lib for the same genotype c when comparing refed and ad lib for the same genotype.
