Serum lipid profile of experimental animals.

Animals	Total cholesterol, mmol/L	Triacylglycerol, mmol/L	High-density lipoprotein cholesterol, mmol/L	Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, mmol/L
Non-diabetic rats	1.09 ± 0.304	0.57 ± 0.029	0.46 ± 0.085	0.74 ± 0.288
STZ-diabetic rats	0.80 ± 0.240	0.95 ± 0.238 *	0.28 ± 0.008 *	0.49 ± 0.218
STZ-diabetic rats administered with omega 3 PUFAs	1.00 ± 0,266	1.14 ± 0.259 *	0.28 ± 0.021 *	0.58 ± 0.149

Values are means ± SD, n = 6 rats in each group. *p ≤ 0.01 compared to the non-diabetic group (one-way ANOVA).
