Table 1.

Basal parameters of control and HF C57BL/6N male mice after 8 weeks of dietary treatment.

	C	HF
Liver weight [g]	1.24 ± 0.04^a	1.62 ± 0.04^b
% Liver/body weight	4.59 ± 0.06	4.34 ± 0.11
VAT weight [g]	1.10 ± 0.05^a	3.86 ± 0.38^b
% VAT/body weight	4.09 ± 0.11^a	10.22 ± 0.74^b
Blood glucose [mg/dl]	123.4 ± 3.4^a	169.4 ± 10.1^b
Plasma insulin [ng/ml]	1.23 ± 0.25	2.72 ± 0.77

Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 5). Different subscript letters indicate statistical significance (p < 0.05). Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) was calculated by summing up the weight of epididymal, perirenal and mesenteric adipose tissue.
