From: Arginine supplementation modulates pig plasma lipids, but not hepatic fatty acids, depending on dietary protein level with or without leucine

Effect of dietary arginine, leucine and protein level on gene expression in the liver of commercial crossbred pigs: a acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACACA), b Apolipoprotein A-V (APOA5), c CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (CEBPA), d Carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP), e Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A), f carnitine O-acetyltransferase (CRAT), g Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), h Fatty acid binding protein 1 (FABP1), i Fatty acid desaturase 1 (FADS1), j fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2), k fatty acid synthase (FASN), l Lipin 1 (LPIN1), m Perilipin 2 (PLIN2), n Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARA), o Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD), p Sterol regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP1). Con, control diet; NPD, normal protein diet; RPD, reduced protein diet; RPDL, reduced protein diet with leucine addition. Values are means, with standard error represented by vertical bars. a, b Mean values within a row with unlike letters were significantly different (P < 0.05). “Arg” and Arg × protein level mean significant effect of arginine or interaction between arginine and protein level, respectively
