Abstract excerpt
1. Groups of lean and obese male SHR/N-cp rats were fed isoenergetic diets containing 54% carbohydrate as cornstarch (CS) or sucrose (SU) plus other nutrients from 5 weeks of age, and measures of adiposity, thyroxine 5' deiodinase (T4-5'DI) activity, and tissue and plasma triiodothyronine (T3) content determined at 9.5 months of age. 2. Body weights (BW) of obese greater than lean, and were greater when fed the...
