CO: rats fed with an AIN-93 G diet; PL–PHer: rats separately fed with a low, medium, high or higher concentration of potato diet.

TC: total cholesterol; TG: triglyceride; HDL: high-density lipoproteins; LDL: low-density lipoproteins. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. Means with different letters (a, b and c) indicate significant differences (Bonferroni's test, P < 0.05), where a > b > c. ¹Expressed as pg mL⁻¹; ²expressed as ng mL⁻¹.
