Abbreviations and keys: ‘Cont’ for control, ‘D-Gal’ signifies the D-galactose, ‘Met’ for metformin, ‘P’ for prevention, ‘T’ for treatment. “a” depicts the difference between Cont and D-Gal. ‘b’ designates the noteworthy variance among D-Gal and ser, ‘c’ indicates the substantial variance among D-Gal and ser (P), ‘d’ exhibits the substantial variance among D-Gal and ser (T), ‘e’ indicates the significant difference between D-Gal and Met, ‘f’ directs the noteworthy variance among D-Gal and Met (P). ‘g’ directs the noteworthy variance among D-Gal and Met (T). Numerical signs: a,b,c,d,e,f,g (p ≤ 0.05); aa,bb,cc,dd,ee,ff,gg (p ≤ 0.01); aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd,eee,fff,ggg (p ≤ 0.001).
