Table 2 Relative fold-change in mRNA abundance of genes involved in glucose metabolism ¹

Gene Name	Gene Symbol	AIN-76	AIN-93
Glucokinase	Gck	+3.4	+3.9
ATP-citrate lyase	Acly	+2.9	NC
Aconitase 1 (cytosolic; IRP1)	Aco1	+1.3	+1.6
Pyruvate dehydrogenase (lipoamide) beta	Pdhb	+1.5	NC
Phosphoglucomutase 3	Pgm3	+1.5	NC
Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase A	Rpia	+1.5	+1.4
Glycogen synthase 2 (liver specific)	Gys2	−1.3	−1.6
2,3-bisphosphoglycerate mutase	Bpgm	−1.3	−1.4

¹Values in each column indicate statistically significant relative fold-changes in mRNA abundance in each ID group compared to their respective PF group. NC is no change. Statistical significance was defined as fold-change ≥ 1.3 and p < 0.05.
