- CT/CT rats fed a standard chow (n = 7), HS/HS rats fed a high-sucrose diet (n = 6), HS/CT rats initially fed HSD and then replaced by standard chow (n = 6); and HS/HP rats fed a HS diet and then replaced by high-protein diet (n = 6). Values represent mean ± SEM, compared by one-way ANOVA (Newman Keuls)
- arepresents p < 0.05 when compared to CT/CT
- crepresents p < 0.05 when compared to HS/CT
- drepresents p < 0.05 when compared to HS/HP
