From: p32 heterozygosity protects against age- and diet-induced obesity by increasing energy expenditure

Figure 3

p32 heterozygosity increases glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. (A) Average fasting blood glucose levels of 52-week-old mice fed NC (n = 6). (B) Glucose tolerance test (GTT) and (C) insulin tolerance test (ITT) in 52-week-old mice fed NC (n = 6). Bar graphs to the right quantify the areas under the curves (AUC). (D) Average fasting blood glucose levels in mice fed an HFD for 10 weeks (WT, n = 7; p32 +/−, n = 5). GTT (E) and ITT (F) assays in mice fed an HFD for 10 weeks (n = 5). Bar graphs to the right quantify the areas under the curves (AUC).
