Pair feeding RAGE229–150 ppm diet to obese mice undergoing diet-induced weight loss increases thermogenesis. (A) Experimental schematic of pair-feeding mice switched from HFD to RAGE229–150 ppm or base diet. (B) Change in daily rectal temperature measured over the indicated time course after diet switch in pair-fed mice (n = 5 per group). (C) Change in body mass measured over the indicated time course after diet switch in pair-fed mice (n = 5 per group). Linear mixed-effect model was adopted for correlated/time-series data, with post hoc t test for group comparisons at each time point. For change in body mass in pair-fed mice (panel C), one tailed t test was used to compare groups at each time point. HFD, high-fat diet; RAGE229, receptor for advanced glycation end products. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001 [Color figure can be viewed at wileyonlinelibrary.com]
