Changes in glucose and insulin concentrations in the blood plasma from tail vein of the rats fed control and HFS diet in oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at week 9. After collection of tail vein blood in fasting condition (16 h food deprivation) for time 0, a glucose solution was orally administered (2 g/kg rats) and tail vein blood was collected at the indicated time points to measure glucose. Maximal insulin concentration in blood was determined at 15 min postadministration of glucose. Values are shown as means with SEM (n = 10 for C, n = 12 for HFS). Open circles, C; filled circles, HFS. Asterisks indicate significant differences compared to the values in C (P < 0.05)
