Effects of MCT oil ingestion on high-LCT diet-induced obesity
(A and B)(A) Body weight and (B) body fat mass in high-LCT diet-fed male WT and GIP KO mice (n = 5 mice).
(C and D)(C) Data of 0.5 U/kg body weight insulin tolerance test (ITT) and (D) energy expenditure in high-LCT diet-fed WT and GIP KO mice (n = 5 mice).
(E and F)(E) Blood glucose and (F) insulin concentration at 0 min and 15 min after 2 g/kg body weight oral glucose loading in high-LCT diet-fed WT and GIP KO mice (n = 5 mice). White circles and black circles indicate saline and MCT oil, respectively. Data indicate the mean ± SEM. Statistical significance was calculated by Student’s t-test. #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01, ###P < 0.001 vs. 0 min. ∗P < 0.05, ∗∗P < 0.01 vs. saline group.
