  1. Abbreviations: ANOVA, analysis of variance; CR, caloric restriction; FF, free fed; FR, food restricted; Lean-FF, lean free feeding; Lean-FR, lean food restricted; ND, non-detected; Obese-FF, obese free feeding; Obese-FR, obese food restricted.
  2. Values are mean±s.e.m. The superscripts a, b, c and d are used to denote statistical differences among groups. Within the same row, means with different superscripts (corresponding to the results from follow-up tests using one-way ANOVAs with post-hoc comparisons) are significantly different (P<0.05).
