High-Fat Diet Induces Oxidative Stress and MPK2 and HSP83 Gene Expression in Drosophila melanogaster

Figure 2

Diet enriched with coconut oil increased augmented triglyceride levels and decreased glucose levels in D. melanogaster. After seven days on the diets, three sets of twenty flies of each diet condition were used for triglyceride and glucose measurements. (a) The data expresses triglycerides levels in whole flies homogenate expressed in mg/dL. (b) Glucose levels in flies homogenate expressed in mg/dL. in relation to the RD group.
