Figure 1

Effects of the hyperlipidic diet on body mass and adipose tissue. (a) Body mass gain over the 10-week experiment. (b) Body adiposity index. (c) Area of adipocytes. (d) Histological section of epididymal adipose tissue stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Bar = 100 μm. For (a), data are expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean (). (a) represents difference compared to the control group using two-way ANOVA followed by the Bonferroni posttest. For (b) and (c), (A) and (C) represent a significant difference in relation to CG and MVG. Data are expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean (). Analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s posttest ().
