Naringenin instead significantly induced a downregulation of the zebrafish larva mRNA of the fatty acid desaturase 2 (fads2), a dyslipidemia-related gene which influences the concentrations of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides, fasn, enoyl-CoA hydratase, short chain 1 (echs1), Fatty acid-binding protein 10a (fabp10α), HMG coenzyme A reductase a (hmgcra) and hmgcrb [97]. Here, FADS2 is linked to metabolic syndrome.
