Alpha-Lipoic Acid Reduces LDL-Particle Number and PCSK9 Concentrations in High-Fat Fed Obese Zucker Rats
Figure 7
Expression of skeletal muscle fatty acid uptake and oxidation markers in Zucker rats fed a high fat (HF) diet or the HF diet supplemented with 0.25% α-lipoic acid (HF-LA) for 30 days.
(A) Total lipase activity in serum and muscle total protein tissue extracts (n = 6 HF; 5 LA); (B) carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT1β). *, denotes a significant difference (p<0.05). All data normalized to β-actin and expressed relative to HF group; n = 8/group.
