Blood glucose and plasma insulin and amylin in rats during an oral glucose tolerance test following a high fat/sucrose diet challenge. Results are presented as mean ± SE, n = 8-9 per group. Panel A provides the serial values of blood glucose during the OGTT. No sex effect was detected for glucose or insulin, therefore male and female data were combined. The * in Panel A represents a difference (p < 0.05) between HF versus HP and C. Panel B provides the serial values of plasma insulin. Panel C provides the serial values of amylin in female rats. In Panel C, the * represents a difference (p < 0.05) between HF and C at the indicated time points. Panel D provides the serial values of amylin in male rats.
