  1. OEA (5 mg per kg, i.p.) or vehicle (5% propylenglycol, 5% Tween 80, 90% sterile saline) were administered once a day for 7 days, following 2 days of baseline measurements. A third group of rats was pair-fed (see Table 1 legend). On day nine, the animals were killed and plasma collected for biochemical analyses. Asterisk, P < 0.05 vs control. Abbreviations: GPT, glutamate-pyruvate transaminase; g-GT, g-glutamyltranspeptidase.
