FIG 1. Characteristics of lean and obese female rats.

FIG 1

(A) Body weight gains of female rats fed diets via total enteral nutrition (TEN) at 155 Kcal/kg3/4/d (lean) or 220 Kcal/kg3/4/d (obese) for 3 wk prior to mating (N = 7–8 per group). (B) Body composition of lean and obese female rats. Fat mass and lean mass expressed as %body weight was non-invasively estimated via qNMR using EchoMRI prior to mating. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. * indicates a statistically significant difference between Lean and Obese (P < 0.05).
