Figure 5. Het GIP Tg mice exhibited decreased physical activity but unaltered energy expenditure.
After 11–12 weeks of LF or HF diet feeding, WT and Het GIP Tg mice (n = 4∼5/group) were placed in individual cages, and energy expenditure and physical activity were assessed during the dark cycle. A. Energy expenditure in LF- and HF diet-fed Het GIP Tg and WT littermates. B. Average home cage activity in Het GIP Tg and WT littermates. C. Average X beam activity in Het GIP Tg and WT littermates. D. Y beam activity in Het GIP Tg and WT littermates. All data represent the mean ± S.E.M. and significance was tested using ANOVA with a Newman-Keuls post hoc test, where ** represents p<0.05 vs indicated group; NS represents not significant.
