Effect of CR on Serum Metabolic Hormones

Strain AL/CR Glucagon Insulin Leptin Resistin
LEAN AL 2121.7±484a NA 10486±2376.48a 14355 ± 1679.5a
CR 388.58 ±57b NA 267.22 ±56.78b 18178 ± 1672b

Adult Lean and OB mice (n=7–10/group) were fed (ad libitum) or put on 40% reduced caloric diet for 9 weeks and average serum glucagon, insulin, leptin, and resistin concentrations (pg/ml) were determined. P <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Groups without a common letter are significantly different. ND, not detectable
