GPAT4 and steatosis: To investigate a role for Fe deficiency in perinatal Cd‐induced steatosis, we used qRT‐PCR to evaluate the impact of perinatal Cd exposure with and without Fe supplementation on hepatic transcription of genes related to fatty acid transport (Pparg, Fabp4, Cd36, and Fatp5), TAG accumulation (Fsp27 and Gpat4), and β‐oxidation (Ppara and Vlcad).
