Fasting does not significantly alter triacylglycerol or glycogen stores in tissue. (A) Heart, (B) gastrocnemius, and (C) liver triacylglycerol (TAG) content in fed and fasted female mice. Tissues were harvested immediately following an endurance exercise capacity (EEC) test (n = 3–4 each group). (D) Heart, (E) gastrocnemius, and (F) liver glycogen content in fed and fasted female tissues harvested immediately following the EEC (n = 3–4 each group). A cohort of sedentary, non-exercised (SED) fasted and fed mice were used for comparison (n= 4–6 each group). * p < 0.05 vs. SED.
