Stress exposure increased fat mass in Krtcap3 knock-out (KO, grey) rats but not wild-type (WT, black) rats. (A) Stress-exposed (empty) KO rats had significantly greater total fat mass relative to KO control (filled) rats, with no differences between WT rats. *p < 0.05 represents effect of stress for KO rats. (B) Stress-exposed rats of both genotypes had a slightly greater body weight at study conclusion compared to control rats. ^# p < 0.1 represents main effect of stress. (C) Stress-exposed KO rats had increased RetroFat mass compared to control counterparts, with no differences between WT rats. *p < 0.05 represents effect of stress for KO rats. (D) KO rats naive to stress had slightly smaller adrenal glands compared to control WT rats. ^# p < 0.1 represents effect of genotype for control rats.
