Results shown are the average ± SEM. ▲ indicates a significant difference with values above the control group with a normal calorie diet. ▼ indicates a significant difference with values below the control group with a normal calorie diet. ↑ indicates a significant difference with values above the HC group. ↓ indicates a significant difference with values below the HC group. Comparisons between groups were performed by a two-way ANOVA and the Bonferroni post hoc test; . FFA = free fatty acids; HDL = high density lipoprotein; HOMA-IR = homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance; IDA-IR = insulin resistance adipocyte dysfunction.
