Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of the fat- and cholesterol-containing oral gavage (FCCOG). A: Serum lipid profile measured by a clinical laboratory. B–D: Tissue sterols quantified by GS-MS. All data represent the mean ± SD of the measurements in individual hamsters; the number of animals (n) for each panel is indicated in the figure. Statistical significance was assessed by a two-tailed, unpaired Student’s t test. ∗ P ≤ 0.05; ∗∗ P ≤ 0.01; ∗∗∗ P ≤ 0.001. 27COOH, cholestenoic acid; 27HC, 27-hydroxycholesterol; HDL, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; TG, triglycerides.
