| Body Weight (g) | 24±1 | 26±1 |
| Blood Glucose (mg·dL−1) | 141±8 | 91±3* |
| Insulin (ng·mL−1) | 0.6±0.1 | 0.6±0.1 |

Measurements were taken in 5h fasted mice prior to phloridzin-glucose clamps and represent combined data from control and experimental animals. * indicates p<0.05 compared to WT littermates.
