^ap < 0.05, ^bp < 0.01, ^cp < 0.001, and ^dp < 0.0001 denote control to XE991 comparisons.

*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 denote fed versus fasted comparisons in males, and oil and fasted E2 compared with E2 in females. For males: fed n = 11; fasted n = 17; refed n = 10. For females: oil n = 14; E2 n = 15; fasted E2 n = 11.
