Figure 1. Body weight, glucose tolerance test and insulin tolerance test in HFD rats and control rats.

(A) Body weight curves for Wistar rats fed on a standard rodent chow diet (control) or a high-fat diet (HFD) starting at 4 weeks of age. (B) Glucose tolerance test. (C) Insulin tolerance test. The baseline glucose levels are 5.5±0.3 mmol/L in control and 6.0±0.3 mmol/L in HFD group. Mean±SD. (n = 7/group. ANOVA, *p<0.05 vs control).
