Biochemical parameters

Parameter Con PF KE
Insulin (ng/ml) 5.55 ± 3.38a 0.80 ± 0.25b 0.61 ± 0.55b
Glucose (mg/dl) 208 ± 31a 163 ± 34b 175 ± 39a,b
Serum TG (mg/dl) 72 ± 7a 86 ± 18a 68 ± 21a
Hepatic TG (mg/dl/g) 6712 ± 2271a 4956 ± 1159b 3938 ± 748b
Serum βHB (mM) 0.32 ± 0.06a 0.32 ± 0.10a 0.51 ± 0.12b

Mice were unfed for 6 h before blood and tissue collection with the exception of serum βHB. Serum βHB concentrations were measured in whole blood from a tail snip following a 4-h food withholding/4-h refeeding period at the start of the dark cycle (6 pm). Values are means ± sd. a,bValues with different letters are significantly different (P < 0.05).
