Effect of starvation and diet composition on the expression of OXPHOS genes. Three groups of fish were fed 23 days at a daily ration of 25 g/kg body weight with diets HLL, MHL or LLH. A fourth group of animals was fasted for the same period. Expression levels in the liver and the skeletal muscle are shown for NDUFB8 (a), NDUFS1 (b), COQ10 (c), UQCR11A (d), COX5B1 (e), COX6A2 (f), ATP5B (g) and SLC25A6 (h). Expression levels for each gene were normalised using 18S and EF1α as housekeeping genes. Results are presented as mean ± SD (n = 5 fish). Different letters (lowercase for the liver; uppercase for the skeletal muscle) indicate significant differences among conditions (p < 0.05)
