Acute-Phase Serum Amyloid A as a Marker of Insulin Resistance in Mice
Figure 1
(a) Fasting plasma insulin, (b) glucose,
(c) adiponectin, and (d) A-SAA levels in mice fed either control diet (Chow),
control diet for 15 weeks, and HFD for one week (1 w HFD), and HFD for 16
weeks (16 w HFD), respectively. Bar
graphs are presented as mean ±SEM ( 5–8), statistics: * versus Chow, ** versus Chow, (a) versus 1 w
HFD, (b) versus
1 w HFD; Mann-Whitney U-Test was used for insulin (7/8 measurements in Chow
group were below detection level, 56 pmol/L); two-tailed Student’s t-test
for all other measurements.
