Effects of 2-DG on b-hydroxybutyric acid (A), lactate (B), base excess (C), pH (D), hematocrit (E) and potassium ion (F) in the 4 groups of mice.
Blood samples were obtained by cardiac puncture under anesthesia at day 8 (n=7 in all groups). HFD: high-fat diet; 2-DG: 2-deoxyglucose. Statistical analysis was performed by 2-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc test. *p<0.05, **p<0.01; ***p<0.001

Effects of 2-DG on glucose (A), and total cholesterol (B) levels in the 4 groups of mice.
Blood samples were obtained by cardiac puncture in a fed state under anesthesia at day 8 (n=9 in all groups). A, Control (water) group with standard diet and high fat diet (HFD); 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) group with standard diet and HFD. B, Control (water) group with standard diet and HFD; 2-DG group with standard diet and HFD. Statistical analysis was performed by 2-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc test. *p<0.05, ***p<0.001
