Body weight at baseline and following DOX treatment.

Time (days)	db/+ non-diabetic mice (grams)		db/db diabetic mice (grams)
	CON	DOX	CON	DOX
Baseline	27.1 ± 1.18	27.4 ± 0.39	45.3 ± 1.74*	47.2 ± 1.49*
Day 5	26.5 ± 1.02	23.9 ± 0.48**	43.3 ± 1.81	43.1 ± 1.80**
Day 7	25.4 ± 0.78	22.8 ± 1.39***	42.1 ± 1.36	39.6 ± 2.04***

Body weights were measured at the baseline and the 5 and 7-day experimental period in db/+ non-diabetic and db/db diabetic mice.

^*P < 0.001 compared to db/+ non-diabetic mice at the baseline;

^**P < 0.01 compared to the corresponding baseline (indicating the weight loss following DOX treatment on day-5);

^***P < 0.001 compared to the corresponding baseline (indicating the weight loss following DOX treatment on day-7).
