BW, body weight; eWAT, epididymal white adipose tissue (day 1/3/5; n = 7/5/7 WT and 7/5/9 PCKO, respectively); GA, gastrocnemius; QUAD, quadriceps; TA, tibialis anterior. Total protein concentration normalized to muscle wet weight (day 5; n = 6 WT and n = 6 PCKO). Statistics: Data reported as means ± SEM. Within rows, means followed by the same letter, are not significantly different (Student's t‐test or two‐way analysis of variance, Tukey's post hoc test, P < 0.05).
