Expression of hepatic genes involved in cholesterol metabolism (SREBP2, HMGCR, and ApoB) and lipogenesis (SREPB1c, SCD-1, FAS, and Acacα) was suppressed in the experimental group, and may have favorably affected hyperlipidemia and hepatic steatosis induced by the high-fat diet. The gene discussed is SCD; the disease is Hepatic steatosis.
