  1. Gene expression was measured by qRT-PCR with results normalized to 18S rRNA (see Methods). Values correspond to mRNA/18S × 10-6. Inter-group comparisons were made using ANOVA tests. For all measurements, df = 3/36. Significant differences relative to the LFD control group were demonstrated using the Dunnett's post-hoc multiple comparison test (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001).
