Abstract:

This study was designed to investigate the role of L-BABP gene in lipid metabolism of hepatocytes and the effect of L-BABP gene on the genes related to lipid metabolism in chicken.L-BABP gene expression was downregulated by siRNA interference and upregulated via overexpression plasmids method.The genes expression level in chicken hepatocytes were detected at 24,36,48,60 and 72 h after transfection with the siRNAs and overexpression plasmids of L-BABP.The results showed that APOAΙAPOBPERILIPIN gene expression levels,the amount of cholesterol and triglyceride in the medium are significantly affected by L-BABP gene expression changes.Therefore,L-BABP may involve in fat deposition,metabolism of total cholesterol and the process of lipolysis lipid metabolism.
