growth/size/body
• in males on a high fat diet
• in males on a high fat diet
• show increased weight gain on a high fat diet
• however, no difference in food intake is detected on a high fat diet
• in males on a high fat diet

adipose tissue
• decrease in fat weight in males on a high fat diet despite increase in lipid accumulation
• in males on a high fat diet despite an increase in fat mass adipose tissue, including subcutaneous, visceral, and epididymal adipose tissue are decreased with more lipids accumulating in nonadipose tissue
• in males on a high fat diet
• mitochondria in inguinal WAT (iWAT) are decreased in number and size
• in males on a high fat diet
• reduction in the abundance of oxidative phosphorylation complexes
• in males on a high fat diet
• adipocytes show increased variability in size with an increased frequency of large hypertrophic adipocytes and very small adipocytes
• average adipocyte size is decreased in iWAT and epididymal WAT

homeostasis/metabolism
• in aging mice on a normal chow diet
• on a high fat diet show increased blood glucose levels compared to diet matched controls
• decrease in VO2, VCO2, and respiratory exchange ratio in mice on a high fat diet
• show increased weight gain on a high fat diet
• however, no difference in food intake is detected on a high fat diet
• in mice on a high fat diet
• in mice on a high fat diet
• in mice on a high fat diet
• in mice on a high fat diet
• decreased glucose infusion rate in a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp assay indicates impaired insulin sensitivity in male mice on a normal chow diet
• insulin resistances develops with age in male mice on a normal chow diet
• severe insulin resistance in male mice on a high fat diet
• females also show decreased insulin sensitivity
• in the liver and skeletal muscles of males on a high fat diet
• in the liver, skeletal muscle, and serum of males on a high fat diet
• on a high fat diet

muscle

liver/biliary system
• in males on a high fat diet
