ADIPOQ and Insulin resistance: However, no significant differences were found in terms of insulinemia (HFD vs. NFD: 4.8 ± 0.9 pmol/L vs. 3.7 ± 0.4 pmol/L), the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (0.6 ± 0.1 vs. 0.3 ± 0.02), and the serum concentrations of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (12.2 ± 0.9 mg/dl vs. 12.7 ± 0.3 mg/dl), plasma adiponectin (3.6 ± 0.3 ng/mL vs. 3.9 ± 0.5 ng/mL), TNF-α (177 ± 2 pg/mL vs. 151 ± 7 pg/mL), and IL-10 (117 ± 7 pg/mL vs. 102 ± 10 pg/mL).
