  1. IL-6, PAI-1 (total) and resistin levels in 6-month old animals using the Mouse Serum Adipokine Milliplex kit. Blood samples were taken after 5-h over morning fasting. Results correspond to mean values from 2 independent set of experiments including n = 8 animals per group, #p < 0.05 chow vs HFD.
