Figure 4. Protective effects of mushroom, chrysin, curcumin and omega-3 on mRNA expression of FAS, STREBP-1c and apoCIII expression in liver tissue of Wistar rats using semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis. RNA was extracted and reverse transcribed (1μg) and RT-PCR analysis was carried out for FAS (A), STREBP-1c (B) and apoCIII (C) expression as described in materials and methods. Densitometric analysis was carried for 3 different experiments. Data are means ± SEM for 3 independent experiments. Values are statistically significant at *p<0.05Vs. control, #p < 0.05 Vs. Triton
