Body composition and metabolic performances are altered in acidotic mice. (A) Body weight of control (black) and acidotic (red) mice on chow diet between 0 and 180 days of NH4Cl treatment (n = 6 per group). (B,C) Average food (B) and liquid intake (C) of control and acidotic mice between 0 and 180 days of NH4Cl treatment (n = 6 cages per group). (D–F) Percentage of fat (D), lean (E) and fluid (F) mass relative to the total body weight of control and acidotic mice between 0 and 180 days of NH4Cl treatment (n = 6 for the control and 5 for the acidotic mice). (G) Energy expenditure of control and acidotic mice between 7 and 150 days of NH4Cl treatment. All values are expressed as mean ± SEM. EE: energy expenditure, ns: not significant; Kcal: kilo calories.
