Plasma free fatty acid and TG levels in preprandial or postprandial conditions after feeding the 5PAA and low Arg diets. Six-week-old male Wistar rats were fed the 15PAA (n = 8), low Arg (n = 8), and 5PAA (n = 8) diet for 14 d. Preprandial free fatty acid (a) and TG (c) levels and postprandial free fatty acid (b) and TG (d) levels are shown. The values are the means ± standard errors. Asterisks indicate significant differences as assessed by one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni and Tukey–Kramer post hoc tests (**p < 0.01)
