Figure 2. Metabolic characterization of Tac1 null mice under HFD.

Figure 2

(A and B) Percentage of lean (A) and fat (B) mass determined by MRI before (START) and after (END) four days of HFD (± SEM, n = 3/group). Different letters indicate statistically different values (2 Way ANOVA followed by Newman-Keuls post hoc test, p < 0.05).

(C – M) Metabolic rate, indicated by VO2 (ml/kg/hr) (C and D) and VCO2 (ml/kg/hr) (E); respiratory exchange ratio (RER) (F and G); heat produced, indicated by Kcal/hr (H and I); accumulated food intake (J – L); and locomotor activity, indicated by total beam breaks (M) during the dark and light phases (± SEM, n = 3/group). Different letters indicate statistically different values (2 Way ANOVA followed by Newman-Keuls post hoc test, p < 0.05). (H) *p < 0.05 Student t-test
