Brown adipose expansion and remission of glycemic dysfunction in obese SM/J mice

2019-08-05

Abstract excerpt

Disruption of glucose homeostasis increases the risk of type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cancer. We leverage a novel rodent model, the SM/J mouse, to understand glycemic control in obesity. On a high fat diet, obese SM/J mice initially develop impaired glucose tolerance and elevated fasting glucose. Strikingly, their glycemic dysfunction resolves by 30 weeks of age despite persistence of obesi...
