UPF effect on metabolic condition of mice at 6 and 9 weeks of age. (A) Weight throughout the experiment (gr) * refers control to UPF group only (B) Total weight gain throughout the experiment (gr/mouse) (C) Serum leptin (pg/mL) (D) Serum glucose (mg/dL) (E) IPGTT Intra peritoneal glucose tolerance test (mg/dL/min) at age of 6 weeks (F) Average area under the curve of IPGTT (intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test) (mg/dL × 120 min) (G) Serum insulin (pg/mL). Values are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 8. Different letters denote p < 0.05 between groups, * p < 0.05 compared to control.
