Metabolic data of mice fed standard diet (STD), high-fat diet (HFD), or HFD + AICAR

	STD	HFD	HFD + AICAR
Body weight, g	28.50 ± 0.64	45.30 ± 0.81^*	34.00 ± 1.23^#
Plasma glucose level, Mg/dl	145.2 ± 5.1	187.0 ± 8.2^*	148.3 ± 10.2^#
Kidney weight, g	0.306 ± 0.007	0.353 ± 0.006^*	0.318 ± 0.012^#
Kidney weight, g/mm of tibia length	0.0154 ± 0.0007	0.0174 ± 0.0003^*	0.0159 ± 0.0004
Adiponectin, µg/ml	14.6 ± 2.9	18.2 ± 2.3	25.7 ± 2.1^*^#
Plasma insulin, ng/ml	0.50 ± 0.01	1.07 ± 0.20^*	0.52 ± 0.03^#
UACR, µg/mg	5.99 ± 1.40	79.80 ± 14.06^*	21.66 ± 4.46^#

Abbreviations: AICAR, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-d-ribofuranoside; UACR, urine albumin/creatinine ratio.

Statistical analyses were performed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Newman–Keuls,

P ≤ 0.05 versus mice on STD and

P ≤ 0.05 versus mice on HFD.

Values are means ± s.e.m; n = 6 in each group.
