A) Intrahepatic uric acid) levels in summer active (SA), fall transition (FT), interbout arousal (IBA), entering torpor (Ent), early torpor (ET), late torpor (LT), arousing from torpor (Ar), and Spring (Sp). B) Intrahepatic phosphate (an inhibitor of AMPD2 activity) levels in livers from ground squirrels in summer active (SA), fall transition (FT), interbout arousal (IBA), entering torpor (Ent), early torpor (ET), late torpor (LT) and Spring (Sp). C) Intrahepatic inosine levels in summer active (SA), fall transition (FT), interbout arousal (IBA), entering torpor (Ent), early torpor (ET), late torpor (LT), arousing from torpor (Ar), and Spring (Sp). n≥6 animals per physiological stage, small letters indicate significantly different groups). D) Intrahepatic IMP levels in summer active (SA), fall transition (FT), interbout arousal (IBA), entering torpor (Ent), early torpor (ET), late torpor (LT), arousing from torpor (Ar), and Spring (Sp). n = 3
