Effect of high-fat feeding on body weight and sperm count, motility in 8 weeks and 19 weeks. All data are expressed as means ± SD; , , versus control group. (a) Bodyweights at the end of 8 weeks of control mice () fed a 10% fat diet and diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice () and diet-induced obesity resistant (DIO-R) mice () fed a 45% fat diet for the times indicated, (b) bodyweights at the end of 19 weeks of control mice () fed a 10% fat diet and diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice () and diet-induced obesity resistant (DIO-R) mice () fed a 45% fat diet for the times indicated, (c) sperm count and motility in control (), DIO-R (), and DIO mice () at the end of 8 weeks, and (d) sperm count and motility in control (), DIO-R (), and DIO mice () at the end of 19 weeks.
