Values are expressed as means and SEM of six to eight animals per group. Total cholesterol: aP < 0.001 vs. control; bP < 0.05 vs. HFD; cP < 0.001 vs. HFD. Triglycerides: aP < 0.001 vs. control; bP < 0.001 vs. HFD; cP < 0.01 vs. HFD-LC and vs. HFD. HDL cholesterol: aP < 0.01 vs. control; bP < 0.01 vs. HFD; cP < 0.05 vs. HFD. LDL cholesterol: aP < 0.01 vs. control; bP < 0.01 vs. HFD; cP < 0.001 vs. HFD. Glucose urine: aP < 0.001 vs. control. HDL: high-density lipoprotein; LDL: low-density lipoprotein; AST: aspartate aminotransferase; ALT: alanine aminotransferase; HFD: high-fat diet; HFD-L: HFD treated with liraglutide; HFD-C: HFD treated with canagliflozin; HFD-LC: HFD treated with liraglutide plus canagliflozin; SEM: standard error of the mean. | |||||
