(a) Body weight at the start of the experiment (12 weeks) and following 2 months of differential housing conditions at 20 weeks was comparable between the groups (n = 11 for SI group, n = 14 for group-housed control). (b) Serum biomarker profile after 2 months of social isolation showed robust increase in leptin level (n = 7–20 per group). (c) Interscapular BAT and WAT depots (from one side) were all increased by SI (SI, n = 11, control, n = 14). (d) Adipocyte diameters were greater in WATi and WATr but not WATe in the SI mice (n = 3–5 mice per group, each mouse with over 10 measurements). Data shown are mean ± S.E.M. * P < 0.05. ** P < 0.01.
