Overfeeding of adult zebrafish with either NFD or HFD leads to an obese phenotype. a Schematic overview of the 8-week feeding protocol and phenotyping of zebrafish. b Exemplary images of zebrafish included in each of the analyzed dietary groups at week 8 of feeding. Black arrows point to the abdominal region. Overfeeding of zebrafish with either NFD or HFD resulted in a significant increase in weight (c), standard length (d), BMI (e), and Fulton’s condition index (f) compared to control zebrafish. Statistical analyses were performed using Two-Way ANOVA and Bonferroni post-test and significant p-values are indicated. *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01; ***, p < 0.001; NFD, normal fat diet; HFD, high-fat-diet; OF, overfeeding; BMI, body mass index; MRI, Magnetic Resonance Imaging; AT, adipose tissue
