Insulinemia and leptinemia are increased in rats fed with a 60%-rich fructose diet.

<p>Plasma insulin and leptin (expressed in pg per mL of plasma) were quantified in the rat after 1, 3, and 6 months of feeding with either the standard (S) or 60%-rich fructose (F) diet. * and ** statistically different at <i>p</i>≤0.05 and 0.01, respectively (Mann & Whitney test). Values are given as means ± SD (<i>n</i> = 8 rats per group).
