Values are means±SEM for 8 animals per group. HOMA-IR index, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance. NC, normal control rats; ND-FO1000, normal control rats supplemented with fish oil-rich in MUFAs at a dose of 1,000 mg/kg BW; DMC, diabetic control rats; DM-FO250, diabetic rats supplemented with fish oil-rich in MUFAs at a dose of 250 mg/kg BW; DM-FO500, diabetic rats supplemented with fish oil-rich in MUFAs at a dose of 500 mg/kg BW; DM-FO1000, diabetic rats supplemented with fish oil-rich in MUFAs at a dose of 1,000 mg/kg BW; DM-Met, diabetic rats treated with metformin at a dose of 50 mg/kg BW. ^*p<0.05, ^**p<0.01, ^***p<0.001 vs. NC group; ^#p<0.05, ^##p<0.01, ^###p<0.001 vs. DMC group.
