Data are expressed as mean ± SEM; * p ˂ 0.05, ** p ˂ 0.01, *** p ˂ 0.001. TAG: plasma triglycerides; CHOL: plasma cholesterol; HDL-C: HDL cholesterol; NEFA: non-esterified fatty acids; MCP-1: monocyte chemoattractant protein 1. Control group (n = 7) and empagliflozin group (n = 8). Empagliflozin group received standard diet enriched by 0.01% empagliflozin for 6 weeks.
