On the other hand, genes associated with the metabolism of lipids/fatty acids including Acadl, Cpt1a and Hadha were downregulated in the inulin diet group (Fig. 3C), a modulation that goes in line with the described effects of inulin consumption on lowering the circulating lipid profile and hepatic steatosis [38, 73]. This evidence concerns the gene ACADL and Hepatic steatosis.
