Reciprocal Interference of Experimental Dyslipidemia and Food Allergy in the Evolution of Both Diseases

Table 1

Food intake, final body weight, and percentage of weight that was visceral fat of C57BL/6 (WT) or LDLr^−/− mice nonsensitized (OVA⁻) or sensitized (OVA⁺) with 10 μg of Ova at the beginning and 14th experimental day and receiving 20% egg white solution from 21st to 35th experimental days.

Parameter	C57BL/6		LDLr^−/−
	OVA^−	OVA^+	OVA^−	OVA^+
Food intake (g/mice/week)	20.2 (0.7)^a	20.2 (0.6)^a	17.7 (0.7)^a	17.7 (0.8)^a
Final body weight (g)	25.3 (0.6)^a	25.7 (0.8)^a	22.6 (0.3)^b	22.2 (0.2)^b
% body weight as visceral fat	2.2 (0.15)^a	1.7 (0.21)^b	1.3 (0.16)^b	1.2 (0.13)^b

Results are expressed as the mean (SE). 𝑛=11/group. Data showing different letters in the same row are statistically different (𝑃<0.05).
