Fig. 3From: Hepatic iron storage is related to body adiposity and hepatic inflammationRelative hepatic mRNA levels of genes involved in iron homeostasis and inflammation: a Heph (n = 16–23 per group) and Bmp6 (n = 7 per group) mRNA levels; b Mcp-1 and Tnf-a. mRNA levels (n = 7 per group). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. abDifferent letters indicate P < 0.05. One-way ANOVA followed by Fisher’s LSD multiple comparison was used to determine significant difference. All values were normalized to the levels of housekeeping gene Gapdh and expressed as relative mRNA level compared to the average level of the Control groupBack to article page
