AI, adipose index; AN, anal-nasal length; BW, live fasted body weight; FWAT, femoral white adipose tissue; GWAT, gonadal white adipose tissue; MWAT, mesenteric white adipose tissue; NS, not significant; RWAT, retroperitoneal white adipose tissue; SPRET, SPRET/EiJ. All animals are ≥N10. HL−/−,+S and HL−/− are littermates, and HL+/+,+S and HL+/+ are littermates. Data shown are means ± SEM. Values not sharing a superscript (a,b) are different by P < 0.05 by Sidak's t-test for multiple comparisons.
