Figure 1. Effects of succinate on growth performance and serum concentration in mice.

Figure 1

Male C57BL/6J mice were fed with chow diet supplemented with 0, 0.5, and 1% SUC for 8 weeks.
  • A–E
    (A) Serum SUA level, (B) body weight gain, (C) fat and (D) lean mass and (E) gastrocnemius index.
  • F, G
    (F) Gastrointestinal muscle fiber immunofluorescent laminin staining and (G) frequency histogram of fiber cross‐sectional area. Scale bar in (F) represents 100 μm.
Data information: Results are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 6–8). Different letters between bars mean P ≤ 0.05 in one‐way ANOVA analyses followed by post hoc Tukey's tests. *: significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) between 0.5% SUC and control group by non‐paired Student's t‐test. #: significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) between 1% SUC and control group by non‐paired Student's t‐test.
