  1. Values are expressed as mean ± S.E.M. Number of rats per group n = 8.
  2. HFD, high fructose diet; AUC, area under the curve; OGTT, oral glucose tolerance test.
  3. (a) Significant difference from control group (P ≤ 0.05).
  4. (b) Significant difference from taurine group (P ≤ 0.05).
  5. (c) Significant difference from fructose-fed group (P ≤ 0.05).
