Figure 5

WT mice and KHK-A/C KO mice were give 10% glucose water for 14 weeks with normal chow diet ad libitum (n=4 per group). (a) Cumulative glucose intake (n=4). (b) Cumulative total energy intake (n=4). (c) Intrahepatic triglyceride levels (n=4). (d) Quantification of oil red O staining (n=4). (e) Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels (n=4). (f) Serum insulin levels (n=4). Data represent means±s.e.m. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 by Student’s t-test. NS, not significant (analysis of variance, Tukey’s post hoc analysis).
