Effect of HFD consumption on metabolic parameters of B6CF1 male mice. (a) Fasting glucose levels were determined at week 12 and 18 (nNFD = 9, nHFD = 9). (b) Glucose tolerance test (GTT) was performed in week 18 after i.p glucose administration (2 g/kg body weight) after 6 h of fasting (nNFD = 5, nHFD = 6). (c) Serum cholesterol and (d) triglycerides levels were determined after euthanasia (nNFD = 9, nHFD = 9). (e) Mean weight of livers from NFD- and HFD-fed male mice (nNFD = 4, nHFD = 3). (f) Representative micrographs of Hematoxylin and Eosin stained liver sections from NFD- and HFD-fed male mice. Bar = 50 µm. Data are expressed as median with interquartile range for (a,b), and mean ± SEM for (c–e). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
