Coordinate induction of genes involved in chylomicron synthesis and clearance is delayed in MetS mice.

<p>After overnight fasting, control and MetS mice were gavaged with 0.5 mL oil and sacrificed 1 and 6 h later. Jejunal mRNA levels of genes of interest were evaluated by real-time PCR and normalized to 36B4 mRNA. Induction of gene expression is shown at 1 h (A) and 6 h (B) after the lipid load as compared with fasting in control and MetS mice. Means ± SEM, n = 5 or 6, *<i>P</i> < 0.05, **<i>P</i> < 0.01, ***<i>P</i> < 0.001. Induction of gene expression obtained from control and MetS mice was also compared across groups # <i>P</i> < 0.05, ## <i>P</i> < 0.01.
