Lipotoxic Effects of Gossypol Acetate Supplementation on Hepatopancreas Fat Accumulation and Fatty Acid Profile in Cyprinus carpio

Table 4

Effects of gossypol acetate on serum biochemical parameters and liver crude fat.

Group	Gossypol acetate supplementation (mg/kg)
Parameter	0	170	340	680
ALT (U/mL)	^b	^b	^b	^a
AST ((U/mL)	^b	^b	^a	^a
TG (mmol/L)	^a	^c	^b	^c
LDL-C (mmol/L)	^a	^a	^a	^b
HDL-C (mmol/L)	^a	^a	^ab	^b
Crude fat in hepatopancreas (%)	^b	^bc	^c	^a

In the serum, dietary gossypol acetate increased the ALT and AST but decreased the LDL-C, HDL-C, and TG content and increased crude fat within the hepatopancreas. Data are shown as (). Different superscript letters denote significant differences between the groups fed the different diets as determined by a one-way ANOVA with Tukey and Duncan’s comparison tests ().
