GPH-A and GPH-TF represent goby protein hydrolysates produced using bacterial proteases of B. mojavensis A21 and digestive enzymes from triggerfish (Balistes capriscus), respectively. UGP is the undigested goby proteins. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6). a,b Indicate significant differences compared to the values of CD, and HFFD groups, respectively, at p < 0.05.
