Fig. 4From: Influence of genotype on the modulation of gene and protein expression by n-3 LC-PUFA in ratsHMGCR gene (a) and protein (b) expression in the liver of WK and SH rats fed the different diets. Hmgcr gene expression (a). Data in the graph are represented as [(sample ratio) − (unitary calibrator group ratio)]; significant differences were evaluated with Taylor’s series statistical analysis. Gene expression in each group (n = 7) is reported as median, range (min–max), and 95 % CI in the corresponding table, where statistic pairs, p value and resulting differences are also indicated. HMGCR protein expression (b). Data in the graph are mean ± SD of four animals per group and are represented as densitometric value normalized on actin. Statistical analysis was performed by the one-way ANOVA using Tukey’s as post-test; different superscript letters indicate statistical significance (at least p < 0.05)Back to article page
