- Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 12/group). Values in a row not sharing the same superscript letter are significantly different at p < 0.05. HF: high fat diet + cholesterol; post FO: fish oil diet after induction with HF diet; post SP: spirulina diet after induction with HF diet; Post SF: spirulina and fish oil diet after induction with HF diet; Pre-SF: pre-treatment with spirulina and fish oil diet before induction with HF diet; HF + SF: HF diet combined with spirulina and fish oil. TNF-α: tumor necrosis factor- α, IL-1β: interleukin-1 β, IL-10: interleukin-10.
