A Changes in body weight and B Final body weight of WT and TCTP TG (n = 10). C Daily food intake and D food efficiency rate (FER) of WT and TCTP TG (n = 8). E Fat mass and F lean mass of 10-week-old WT and TCTP TG (n = 6). Masses were measured by LF50 (BRUKER, Germany) and normalized to the body weight. G Normalized weights of the EpiWAT, IngWAT, and IBAT, and muscle (n = 8). H Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining of EpiWAT and histomorphometric analyses of adipocyte area, and I size distribution of EpiWAT (\(n = 6 - 7\)). The images were magnified by 10X and scale bar is 100 μm. Data are expressed as means ± SEM. Unpaired t-test; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
