    Elabscience Biotechnology ldl c colorimetric assay kits
    Experimental design, growth, intake partitioning, skeletal-muscle S6 signaling, and endpoint plasma markers under phase-shifted BCAA regimens. (A) Simplified study design: rats were maintained on a 12-h light:12-h dark cycle and assigned for 12 weeks to Ctrl (AIN-93G throughout), D + N − (BCAA+20 during the light/inactive phase and BCAA−20 during the dark/active phase), or D − N + (BCAA−20 during the light/inactive phase and BCAA+20 during the dark/active phase), where BCAA+20 and BCAA−20 denote diets containing ~20% higher or lower total BCAA content than Ctrl, respectively; daily energy and nitrogen were intended to be matched while allowing minor day-to-day variation during implementation ( n = 6/group). (B,C) Individual body weight trajectories from week 0 (acclimation) to weeks 1–12 (experimental period) (B) and weekly body weight distributions shown as boxplots (weeks 1–12) with pairwise between-group comparisons annotated above brackets (C) . (D,E) Representative immunoblots of total ribosomal protein S6 and phosphorylated S6 (p-S6, Ser235/236) in skeletal muscle at the end of the study, with total protein staining (TPS; Ponceau S) used for normalization ( n = 4/group; region approximately ~32 kDa displayed) (D) , and densitometric quantification of S6/TPS, p-S6/TPS, and phosphorylation ratio (p-S6/S6 computed as (p-S6/TPS)/(S6/TPS)) with individual animals overlaid (E) . (F) Weekly feed intake partitioned by circadian phase (inactive/light phase: 07:00–19:00; active/dark phase: 19:00–07:00); within each week, upper brackets/ p -values compare whole-day (24 h) total intake between the groups, and lower brackets/ p -values compare inactive vs. active intake within each group (red p-values indicate p < 0.05 as displayed). (G) Endpoint fasting plasma HDL-C, <t>LDL-C,</t> triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and malondialdehyde (MDA) across the groups (units as indicated on axes). Group colors follow Ctrl (red), D − N + (green), and D + N − (blue). Boxplots show median and interquartile range (IQR), whiskers extend to 1.5 × IQR, and points indicate individual values (with outliers beyond whiskers where shown). Pairwise statistics were computed using two-sided t-tests with Holm p -value adjustment.

    Experimental design, growth, intake partitioning, skeletal-muscle S6 signaling, and endpoint plasma markers under phase-shifted BCAA regimens. (A) Simplified study design: rats were maintained on a 12-h light:12-h dark cycle and assigned for 12 weeks to Ctrl (AIN-93G throughout), D + N − (BCAA+20 during the light/inactive phase and BCAA−20 during the dark/active phase), or D − N + (BCAA−20 during the light/inactive phase and BCAA+20 during the dark/active phase), where BCAA+20 and BCAA−20 denote diets containing ~20% higher or lower total BCAA content than Ctrl, respectively; daily energy and nitrogen were intended to be matched while allowing minor day-to-day variation during implementation ( n = 6/group). (B,C) Individual body weight trajectories from week 0 (acclimation) to weeks 1–12 (experimental period) (B) and weekly body weight distributions shown as boxplots (weeks 1–12) with pairwise between-group comparisons annotated above brackets (C) . (D,E) Representative immunoblots of total ribosomal protein S6 and phosphorylated S6 (p-S6, Ser235/236) in skeletal muscle at the end of the study, with total protein staining (TPS; Ponceau S) used for normalization ( n = 4/group; region approximately ~32 kDa displayed) (D) , and densitometric quantification of S6/TPS, p-S6/TPS, and phosphorylation ratio (p-S6/S6 computed as (p-S6/TPS)/(S6/TPS)) with individual animals overlaid (E) . (F) Weekly feed intake partitioned by circadian phase (inactive/light phase: 07:00–19:00; active/dark phase: 19:00–07:00); within each week, upper brackets/ p -values compare whole-day (24 h) total intake between the groups, and lower brackets/ p -values compare inactive vs. active intake within each group (red p-values indicate p < 0.05 as displayed). (G) Endpoint fasting plasma HDL-C, LDL-C, triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and malondialdehyde (MDA) across the groups (units as indicated on axes). Group colors follow Ctrl (red), D − N + (green), and D + N − (blue). Boxplots show median and interquartile range (IQR), whiskers extend to 1.5 × IQR, and points indicate individual values (with outliers beyond whiskers where shown). Pairwise statistics were computed using two-sided t-tests with Holm p -value adjustment.

(A) Simplified study design: rats were maintained on a 12-h light:12-h dark cycle and assigned for 12 weeks to Ctrl (AIN-93G throughout), D + N − (BCAA+20 during the light/inactive phase and BCAA−20 during the dark/active phase), or D − N + (BCAA−20 during the light/inactive phase and BCAA+20 during the dark/active phase), where BCAA+20 and BCAA−20 denote diets containing ~20% higher or lower total BCAA content than Ctrl, respectively; daily energy and nitrogen were intended to be matched while allowing minor day-to-day variation during implementation ( n = 6/group). (B,C) Individual body weight trajectories from week 0 (acclimation) to weeks 1–12 (experimental period) (B) and weekly body weight distributions shown as boxplots (weeks 1–12) with pairwise between-group comparisons annotated above brackets (C) . (D,E) Representative immunoblots of total ribosomal protein S6 and phosphorylated S6 (p-S6, Ser235/236) in skeletal muscle at the end of the study, with total protein staining (TPS; Ponceau S) used for normalization ( n = 4/group; region approximately ~32 kDa displayed) (D) , and densitometric quantification of S6/TPS, p-S6/TPS, and phosphorylation ratio (p-S6/S6 computed as (p-S6/TPS)/(S6/TPS)) with individual animals overlaid (E) . (F) Weekly feed intake partitioned by circadian phase (inactive/light phase: 07:00–19:00; active/dark phase: 19:00–07:00); within each week, upper brackets/ p -values compare whole-day (24 h) total intake between the groups, and lower brackets/ p -values compare inactive vs. active intake within each group (red p-values indicate p < 0.05 as displayed). (G) Endpoint fasting plasma HDL-C, LDL-C, triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and malondialdehyde (MDA) across the groups (units as indicated on axes). Group colors follow Ctrl (red), D − N + (green), and D + N − (blue). Boxplots show median and interquartile range (IQR), whiskers extend to 1.5 × IQR, and points indicate individual values (with outliers beyond whiskers where shown). Pairwise statistics were computed using two-sided t-tests with Holm p -value adjustment.

    Techniques:

    (A) Experimental workflow. Hepa1-6 mRNA (epi-editor, gene editor, or base editor) and sgRNA were formulated LUNAR ® for systemic delivery, while GalNAc-conjugated siRNA was administered directly. eGFP mRNA served as a vehicle control. Blood samples were collected at the indicated time points for downstream analyses. Created with BioRender.com. (B–C) Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels measured at each time point to assess hepatotoxicity. (D) Plasma PCSK9 protein levels quantified by ELISA. (E–F) Circulating low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and total cholesterol levels. All plasma data (D–F) are normalized to eGFP control at the corresponding time point. Statistical analyses were performed as described in the Methods section. Error bars: SD.
