The mRNA levels of genes involved in (A) vitamin D absorption in jejunum and (B) vitamin D transport in epididymal adipose tissue and liver. Data are presented as means ± SEMs, n = 6 ~ 8 for each group. Two-way ANOVA was used to determine the significant effects of dietary fat amount and vitamin D content, and an interaction. ^abDifferent superscripts indicate significant difference (P < 0.05) by Fisher’s LSD multiple comparison test. CON: 10% kcal fat diet; HFD: 45% kcal fat diet; LVd: Low vitamin D; CVd:Control vitamin D; HVd: High vitamin D, Cd36, cluster of differentiation 36; Sr-b1, Scavenger receptor class B type1; Npc1l1, Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1; Abca1, ATP-binding cassette transporter A1; Mttp, Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein; Lpl, lipoprotein lipase; Lrp1, Low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1; Dbp, vitamin D binding protein
