Hepatic enzymatic activities of glucokinase (a), pyruvate kinase (b), glucose-6-phosphatase (c), and fatty-acid synthase (d) after 12 weeks of feeding. Enzymatic activities were measured in liver samples relative to the average of milligram of proteins. Feeding groups are symbolized as LS-0: Low-starch with 0 inulin; LS-In: low-starch with 2% inulin; HS-0: High-starch with 0 inulin; and HS-In: High-starch with 2% inulin. Statistical differences were analyzed with a two-way ANOVA test and were considered statistically significant for P < 0.05. Significant differences are represented by an asterisk. ^*P < 0.05, ^**P < 0.01, ^***P < 0.001. n = 12 fish per group
