Abstract excerpt
1. Adipose mass and cellularity were studied in congenic female SHR/N-cp rats fed iosenergetic diets containing 54% carbohydrate as sucrose (SU) or cooked cornstarch (CS), 20% protein, 16% mixed dietary fat plus vitamins, minerals, and non-nutritive fiber ad libitum from 5 weeks until 8.5 months of age. Measures of adipocyte lipid content, cell number per depot, and mass of principal white (WAT) and interscapular...
