Effects of high carbohydrate diet (HCD) on physiological parameters in TNF-WT mice. HCD increased body weight (a), heart weight (b), plasma insulin (e) and plasma leptin levels (f), decreased blood glucose tolerance test (d) but no significant difference was observed on blood glucose levels (c), *𝑃<0.05; ***𝑃<0.001 versus normal diet (ND); 𝑛≥6 for all groups.
