Figure 2

Weekly body weight (A), lean mass (B), fat mass (C) and percent fat (D) from control (black) and dexamethasone (red) treated mice. E) Average food consumption per mouse per day. F) Insulin tolerance test. Following a 6 hour fast, insulin (1 mU/g) was administered via IP injection and blood glucose was measured at baseline and the indicated time post injection. G) Inguinal (IWAT) and epididymal (EWAT) fat pad weights, for right fat pads only. Asterisks indicate p<0.05.
