Phenotypic analyses of C3H, NSY, C3H-Chr 11NSY, and C3H-Chr 14NSY. Mice were administered water (control) or 30% (w/v) sucrose solution (sucrose) from 4 weeks of age, and the phenotypes were studied at 15 weeks of age. a Body weight. b White adipose tissue weight percent (sum of epididymal fat, retroperitoneal fat and mesenteric fat). c Liver weight percent. (Control group: C3H, n = 7; NSY, n = 7; C3H-Chr 11NSY, n = 13; C3H-14NSY, n = 6, Sucrose group: C3H, n = 6; NSY, n = 7; C3H-Chr 11NSY, n = 7; C3H-14NSY, n = 7). a,b,c Means without common letters are significantly different by Tukey test (P < 0.05)
