growth/size/body
• chow-fed mice exhibit a slight but significant reduction in lean mass relative to controls
• however, mice fed a high fat diet (HFD) for 4 weeks show no differences in lean mass relative to HFD-fed controls

homeostasis/metabolism
N
• chow-fed mice exhibit comparable insulin and glucose tolerance and blood concentrations of glucose and insulin relative to chow-fed controls
• HFD-fed mice show comparable diet-induced obesity with no differences in blood glycerol and free fatty acids (FFA) levels relative to HFD-fed controls
• upon LPS stimulation, chow-fed mice show significantly reduced blood M1-associated cytokine levels relative to chow-fed control mice
• upon LPS stimulation, chow-fed mice show significantly reduced blood M1-associated chemokine levels relative to chow-fed control mice
• hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp studies revealed that mice fed either a regular chow or a HFD show a significantly enhanced steady-state glucose infusion rate, clamp hepatic glucose production, and insulin-stimulated whole-body glucose turnover relative to similarly-fed control mice
• HFD-fed mice show a significant increase in glucose-induced insulin secretion both in vitro and in vivo relative to HFD-fed controls
• mice are protected from HFD-induced hyperglycemia, unlike HFD-fed controls
• mice are protected from HFD-induced hyperinsulinemia, unlike HFD-fed controls
• HFD-fed mice show significantly reduced gluconeogenesis relative to HFD-fed controls
• HFD-fed mice show improved glucose tolerance relative to HFD-fed controls
• hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp studies revealed that mice fed either a regular chow or a HFD show a significantly enhanced whole-body glycogen plus lipid synthesis relative to similarly-fed control mice
• HFD-fed mice show improved insulin tolerance relative to HFD-fed controls
• hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp studies revealed that increased whole-body insulin sensitivity is due to significant improvements in glucose infusion rates, hepatic insulin action, clamp hepatic glucose production, insulin-stimulated whole body glucose turnover, and whole-body glycogen plus lipid synthesis relative to control mice
• after overnight fasting, HFD-fed mice fail to suppress insulin-stimulated Akt activation in the liver, white adipose tissue and skeletal muscle, unlike similarly treated HFD-fed control mice
• protection of HFD-fed mice against insulin resistance is associated with reduced tissue infiltration by macrophages
• hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp studies revealed that mice fed either a regular chow or a HFD show a significantly enhanced whole-body glycogen plus lipid synthesis relative to similarly-fed control mice
