The liver of rats fed a high fat diet (HFD) diet without (S)/with (R) Realsil or a standard control diet (controls). Values from controls are reported in the first column under the parameter. Data are mean ± SD of n = 5 rats per group at each time point.

a

P < 0.05 vs control rats;

c

P < 0.05 vs rats on HFD diet without Realsil at the same time point. GPx: Glutathione peroxidase; NADH: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide; prt: Protein.
