Figure 3. Effect of L-FABP gene-ablation and high-fat diet on distribution of lean tissue mass (LTM) and fat tissue mass (LFM) in ad libitum-fed mice.

Figure 3

Dual emission X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) was performed at the beginning and end of the 12 wk ad libitum-fed study. DEXA analysis results were reported as mass increases in LTM and FTM for L-FABP (+/+) and L-FABP (−/−) mice as for the (A) control and (B) high-fat diets. The mass increase per energy intake (mg/kcal) was reported as well for (C) control and (D) high-fat diets. Values represent the Mean ± SEM, n=5–7. Statistical analysis performed by one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-tests. The significance was as follows: * p ≤ 0.05 as compared to L-FABP (+/+) LTM; # as compared to L-FABP(−/−) LTM; and $ as compared to L-FABP (+/+) FTM.
