(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-Gallate Regulates Muscle Growth, Antioxidant Status, and Nutritional Composition of Juvenile Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)
Figure 5
Effects of dietary EGCG on the muscle fatty acids of common carp (C. carpio L.). (a) Percentage of muscle amino acids in different treatment groups. Bars indicate the percentage value of fatty acids; (b) percentage of various types of fatty acids; (c) ratio of n-3 and n-6; (d) index of thrombogenicity (IT); (e) index of atherogenicity (IA); (f) index of health-promoting (HPI); (g) ratio of LA (C 18 : 2N6) and ALA (C18 : 3N3). Data are represented as mean ± SEM (n = 3); (h) the mRNA relative expression levels of fatty acid metabolism and lipid metabolism related genes (n = 9). One-way ANOVA followed by Duncan’s test was used to analyze the discrepancy among all test groups. Different symbols denote significant differences (). P-values indicate a significantly linear or quadratic dose–response relationship. Liner trend and quadratic trend were analyzed by polynomial contrasts (A, ANOVA; L, linear; Q, quadratic). Different column colors represent dietary EGCG supplemented at 0, 0.05, 0.25, 0.5, or 1 g/kg.
