Figure 6Body weights and body composition of mice maintained on a standard chow diet. Weekly body weights (upper panels) and body compositions (lower panels; as determined by DEXA) of female (left panels) and male (right panels) GHSR-null mice and wild-type littermates included in a 19-week-long standard chow diet study, beginning at 4 weeks of age. Data points and error bars correspond to the mean ± SEM. Mean values were calculated from 17–21 animals (for body weight) or 13–21 animals (for DEXA) per each group. Statistical trends are denoted by a cross;
†P = 0.087.
