From: Trehalose itself plays a critical role on lipid metabolism: Trehalose increases jejunum cytoplasmic lipid droplets which negatively correlated with mesenteric adipocyte size in both HFD-fed trehalase KO and WT mice

Effect of drinking water containing trehalose on fecal lipid excretion. Detached jejunal microvillus to the lumen of KO/CE-2/Water (a-A), and KO/HFD/Tre (a-C) and magnified images of jejunal microvillus (a-B, −D) are shown. The amount of TG and FFA excreted in feces are summarized in 5b and 5c, respectively. Values are shown as means±standard deviation (n = 7–8). Statistical analysis was performed using Steel-Dwass test. No statistical significance was observed between water group and Tre group, in both trehalase KO and WT mice
