Data represent mean ± S.E. of observations from seven animals. a: significant from the control group. b: significant from long saturated fat (SFD) group, c: significant from monounsaturated (MUFAs) group, d: significant from polyunsaturated (PUFAs) group, e: significant from medium chain (MCFAs) group. significance: p < 0.05. SCFAs: short chain fatty acids, HOMA-IR: Homeostatic Model Assessment for insulin resistance.
