Fasting levels of plasma lipids and insulin in C57BL/6J (B6) and B6.A-(rs3676616-D10Utsw1)/KjnB6 (B6.A) mice after 12 weeks of high fat diet (HFD) feeding.

Plasma concentrations of free fatty acids (FFA), triacylglycerol (TAG), total cholesterol (TC, mM), and HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) were assessed using commercially available kits. LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration was quantified as suggested by Friedewald et al. [35]. Plasma concentrations of insulin were measured using a standard enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (insulin ELISA, # nr 10-1247-01, Mercodia, Sweden). The values are means ± SD. , B6 vs B6.A strain; †, ††, ††† males vs females. |
