Metabolic markers in mice fed CHOW-, MCFA-, and LCFA-rich diets. Body weight (A), fat pad weight (B), oxygen consumption (C), RER (D), blood glucose levels during a glucose tolerance test (GTT) (E), and fasting plasma insulin levels (F). For the GTT, glucose (2 g/kg) was injected at the 0 time point, and blood glucose levels were monitored for 90 min after injection. Shown are means ± SEM, n = 6–8 per diet group; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001. Significance values in panel (E) represent differences in the area-under-the-curve during the GTT.
