Figure 2. Body composition and glucose metabolism in Bellomo Vegf-b-/- mice on Western-type diet.

Figure 2

(a). Body weight during the course of Western-type diet (WD) and standard diet (SD) feeding. (b). Body fat percentage and (c) body fat normalized to body size after WD. (d). Glucose and (e) insulin levels during intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT) on SD. (g). Glucose and (h) insulin levels during IPGTT on WD. The glucose dose used was 2 mg/g body weight. (f). Intraperitoneal insulin tolerance test (IPITT) with the insulin dose of 0.25 mU/g body weight on SD and (i) on WD in Bellomo Vegf-b-/- and littermate control mice. The statistical analyses were performed with one-way ANOVA (a) or Student's t-test (b to i). Results are expressed as mean ± S.E.M. n = 8-12.
