Characteristics of wild-type (Wt) and A-CNP transgenic (Tg) mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD). (A) Schematic representation of the A-CNP Tg transgene, (B) body weight, (C) food intake, (D) macroscopic appearance, and (E) naso-anal length of Wt and A-CNP Tg mice on HFD. (F) CNP and (G) guanylyl cyclase B (GCB) mRNA expression in adipose tissue (epididymal, mesenteric, and inguinal white adipose tissue [EpiWAT, MesWAT, and IngWAT, respectively] and brown adipose tissue [BAT]) from Wt and A-CNP Tg mice fed HFD at 10 weeks. pA, polyA tail. a.u., arbitrary units (copy number of gene of interest/copy number of reference gene [ribosomal protein 36B4]). The data are presented as means ± SEM. n = 16–17 (B,C and E); n = 10 (F and G); (B) *P < 0.05 for standard (STD)-fed group vs HFD-fed group; (E and F) *P < 0.05.
