Body weight (BW), blood glucose (BG), total serum cholesterol (TC), and triglyceride (TG) levels in Ldlr−/− mice reconstituted with female (A) and male (B) Rictorfl/fl and MRictor−/− bone marrow cells after 10 weeks of the Western diet.

| Rictorfl/fl (n = 10) | 22.7 ± 0.7 | 163.5 ± 4.4 | 935 ± 33 | 203 ± 17 |
| MRictor−/− (n = 10) | 22.2 ± 0.9 | 156.2 ± 5.0 | 949 ± 52 | 187 ± 18 |
| p | 0.91 | 0.21 | 0.87 | 0.90 |
| (B) Males | ||||
| Rictorfl/fl (n = 10) | 23.4 ± 0.2 | 139.7 ± 4.7 | 750 ± 38 | 158 ± 28 |
| MRictor−/− (n = 9) | 22.6 ± 0.6 | 151.1 ± 9.9 | 714 ± 22 | 131 ± 19 |
| p | 0.73 | 0.58 | 0.41 | 0.59 |
Values are (Mean ± SEM). The number of recipient mice in each group is indicated by n. p = the differences are not statistically significant between the groups.
