(n = 5) in each group. Values are in Mean ± SEM; data was analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey-Kramer multiple comparison test.

F (4, 25) = 0.95; P < 0.04516 (for fructose treated control from week 0 to week 4).

F (4, 25) = 0.19; P < 0.9431 (comparison among various groups at week 1).

F (4, 25) = 0.18; P < 0.9464 (comparison among various groups at week 2).

F (4, 25) = 0.49; P < 0.7422 (comparison among various groups at week 3).
