Mice fed a HFD were compared to age-matched mice fed a chow diet. Data is presented as mean ± SEM for n number of observations. Data was analyzed by unpaired t-test.
P < 0.05 vs. the chow-fed group. $: mean food intake of 18 mice in each group during the study period 12 weeks (n = 12). AUC, area under the curve; OGTT, oral glucose tolerance test; ITT, insulin tolerance test
