Decanoate (C10:0) intake improves metabolic functions in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese model mice. (A) Body weight gain for 5 weeks in HFD- or C10:0-supplemented HFD-fed mice (n = 8, 7) and (B) tissue weight in HFD- or C10:0-supplemented HFD-fed mice at 12 weeks of age (n = 8, 7). (C) Blood glucose, plasma triglycerides (TGs), non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs), and total cholesterol (T-cho) levels in HFD- or C10:0-supplemented HFD-fed mice at 12 weeks of age (n = 8, 7), (D) plasma GLP-1 levels (n = 8, 6) in HFD- or C10-supplemented HFD-fed mice at 12 weeks of age were measured after fasting for 5 h. (E) Daily food intake measured at 7 weeks of age (n = 6, 4) **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05 (A, Tukey-Kramer test, B–E, Student's t test). All data are presented as the means ± standard error of mean (SEM). C10:0, 5% decanoate (C10:0)-supplemented HFD. Epi, epididymal adipose tissues; peri, perirenal adipose tissues; sub, subcutaneous adipose tissues; WAT, white adipose tissue.
