Organ weights: (a) Intra-abdominal fat pad weights as absolute values and (b) as percentages of BW on final day of trial. (c) Pancreas weight as absolute value and (d) as percentage of BW on final day of trial. (e) Liver weight as absolute value and (f) as percentage of BW on final day of trial. Male, retired breeder (6 mo.) C57BL/6 mice were used for this study. Values represent mean ± SEM (𝑁=5–8). *𝑃<0.05 versus respective control, ^#𝑃<0.05 versus respective LFD group, ^‡𝑃=0.07 versus respective LFD group, ^†𝑃=0.05 versus respective control.
