Figure 1.
Dietary fat and MSG supplementation for one month effect the concentrations of serous biochemical parameters in growing pigs (n = 8).
Abbreviation, ALB: Albumin, ALT: Alanine transaminase, AST: Aspartate aminotransferase.
Table 4.
Effect of dietary fat and MSG and their interaction on serous AA concentrations in growing pigs (n = 8).
Figure 2.
Dietary fat and MSG supplementation changed the express profiles of free AA-sensing genes, T1R1 (A), CaR (B) and GPRC6A (C) (n = 8).
The results were normalized by the expression of β-actin. Abbreviations, T1R1: Taste receptor type 1 member 1, CaR: Ca2+-sensing receptor and GPRC6A: G-protein-coupled receptor family C member 6A.

Effect of dietary fat and MSG and their interaction on free AA concentrations in liver of growing pigs (n = 8).
Table 6.
Effect of dietary fat and MSG and their interaction on free AA concentrations in muscle of growing pigs (n = 8).
Table 7.
Effect of dietary fat and MSG and their interaction on free AA concentrations in the kidney of growing pigs (n = 8).
Figure 3.
Dietary fat and MSG supplementation changed the express profiles of AA and peptide transporters in intestine: Duodenum (A), Jejunum (B), Ileum (C) and Colon (D) (n = 8).
The results were normalized by β-actin. Abbreviation, EAAC1: Excitatory amino-acid carrier 1, LAT1: L-type AA transporter 1, B0+: B0+ AA transporter, ASCT2: ASC-like Na+-dependent neutral AA transporter 2 and PEPT1: Intestinal H+/peptide co-transporter.
