Rat strain effect on telomere length of PBMCs isolated at 4, 12, and 24 wk after maintenance on high-fat (HFD) and regular (RD) diets for (A) SD, (B) F344, and (C) BN strains. Values are means ± standard error (n = 8); *Significantly different from corresponding regular-diet group within a time point (p < 0.05). The relative telomere length was measured by comparing the ratio of telomere repeat copy number (T) and single gene copy number (S) expressed as telomere length (T/S) ratio.
