Long-term obesogenic diet leads to metabolic phenotypes which are not exacerbated by catch-up growth in zebrafish.

Abstract excerpt

Obesity and metabolic syndrome are of increasing global concern. In order to understand the basic biology and etiology of obesity, research has turned to animals across the vertebrate spectrum including zebrafish. Here, we carefully characterize zebrafish in a long-term obesogenic environment as well as zebrafish that went through early lifetime caloric restriction. We found that long-term obesity in zebrafish...
