Increased starvation-induced fatty liver and lipid content in mice deficient in adipose FGFR1. (A) Appearance of liver tissue. Conventional hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining on liver sections revealed the elevated characteristic vacuoles induced by lipid accumulation. Staining by Oil Red O revealed an increase in the number and size of lipid droplets. (B) Quantitation of liver TG content. Data are the mean + SD (n=7-8). **p<0.005, and p<0.05 for all other tests.
