Abstract

Supplementary Figure 1 Metabolic effect of fasting. Rats were fed ad libitum (AL)or fasted for one day (F1), two days (F2) or three days (F3). (a) Plasma Total proteins and Urea. (b) Relative weights (% of body weight) of the heart, gastrocnemius, extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscles. Tukey boxplot (n = 12 rats per group). Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn’s multiple comparisons test for Total Proteins. Brown-Forsythe and Welch ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison tests for Gastrocnemius. One-way ANOVA followed by Holm-Sidak’s multiple comparisons test for all other variables
