Table 1:
n | Mean Liver Weight (g) | Mean Body Weight (g) | Mean LW/BW | |
---|---|---|---|---|
CD+ Control VM | 15 | 1.48 ±0.06 | 30.77 ± 1.07 | 4.84 ±0.16 |
CD+p16 VM | 12 | 1.36 ± 0.05 | 31.79 ± 0.83 | 4.28 ± 0.14 |
HFD+ Control VM | 14 | 2.83 ± 0.26** | 34.64 ± 1.09 | 8.03 ± 0.51** |
HFD+p16 VM | 14 | 2.16 ± 0.13* | 33.33 ± 0.74 | 6.47 ± 0.31* |
Note: p16 VM treatment reduced LW, but did not significantly reduce BW; however, overall LW/BW ratio decreased significantly compared to HFD control VM group. Data represented as mean ± SEM.
