Total amount of fat (g), cholesterol (mg) and triglyceride (mg) in liver and plasma cholesterol concentration (mmol/L) in rats fed the four test diets with low-fat or high-fat content for 2 weeks (means ± SEM, n = 7).

a,bMean values within a column, for different fat levels, with unlike superscripts are significantly different (P<0.05). Mean values were significantly different from those of rats fed the corresponding low-fat diet: * P<0.05, ** P<0.01, ***P<0.001.
