Experimental paradigm and increase in body weight independent of VitA following HFD feeding. (A) Mice with homozygous Lrat germline deletion (Lrat -/-) and wildtype controls (Lrat +/+) were obtained by breeding mice with heterozygous Lrat germline deletion (Lrat +/-). Dietary treatment started at 8 weeks of age for a duration of 20 weeks total. (B) Body weight data are reported as mean values ± SE and represent a subgroup of a previously published animal cohort (14). Two-way ANOVA was performed to analyze differences by HFD feeding and VitA. Results of post-hoc analyses for each comparison are summarized by symbols as defined: # p<0.05 for HFD feeding, $ p<0.05 for VitA, and & p<0.05 for the interaction between HFD feeding and VitA. Body weight following 0 ($, &), 4 (#, &), 8 (#, &), 12 (#), 16 (#), and 20 (#) weeks of dietary feeding (n=17-18/group). *p < 0.05 vs. normocaloric diet same VitA availability, † p<0.05 vs. VitA sufficiency same caloric diet.
