Notes: Basic phenotypic characteristics including body weight, visceral fat, food intake, and plasma insulin and FFA levels in YAL, OCR, and OAL rats. Data are means ± SE. Different letters denote a significant difference between groups, p < .05. FFA = free fatty acids.
Food intake was clamped at 12 g/day.
