Table 4: Correlations between metabolic markers and iron and zinc content in epididymal adipose tissue. Correlations of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) content with metabolic markers; insulin degrading enzyme (IDE), peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor gamma (PPARγ), lipoprotein lipase (LPL), hormone sensitive lipase (HSL), and leptin in diabetic animals. Correlations were performed using Pearson correlations. Pearsons r value and p-value are indicated in the table.
