Baseline body weight, MAP, and HR for protocol 1

Group	n	Body Wt, g	MAP, mmHg	HR, beats/min
CON	5	423 ± 8	112 ± 5	395 ± 7
OR	5	446 ± 7	107 ± 6	403 ± 20
OP	6	516 ± 5*†	110 ± 7	377 ± 22

Values are means ± SE; n, no. of animals. MAP, mean arterial pressure; HR, heart rate; CON, control; OR, obesity resistant; OP, obesity prone. Body weight was greater in OP vs. CON (*P < 0.05) and OR (†P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in baseline MAP and HR between groups.
