Fig 2. Effects of STAT5 adipocyte deficiency on body weight and body composition.
Weight gain (A) and changes in body composition (B) of male mice lacking STAT5 in their adipocytes (Stat5Adipoq; n = 20) and their wild type controls (WT; n = 16) fed high-fat diet ad libitum for 7.5 weeks. Thereafter, mice of both genotypes were divided into two groups each, one fed HFD ad libitum (ad lib), one fed HFD restrictedly (1 g/d) (restr). Effects on weight gain (C) and body composition after 3 weeks (D) are shown. Means±SEM; * p<0.05 WT vs Stat5Adipoq.
