Abstract excerpt
Aged rodents show increasing plasma and tissue triglycerides, and reductions in liver peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) and its target genes. We determined whether a similar situation is present in a model of accelerated aging, the senescence-accelerated prone (SAM-P8) mouse. Five-month-old SAM-P8 mice were hypertriglyceridemic, and exhibited hepatic steatosis and reduced fatty acid...
