Elevated serum TG, NEFA and adipose lipase activity induced by starvation stress in mice deficient in adipocyte FGFR1. (A) Serum triglycerides, (B) NEFA, (C) glucose and (D) ketone bodies were analyzed in FGFR1Cn and FGFR1Fx mice after food restriction for 12 and 48 h. Data are the mean ± SD (n = 10), ** p<0.005, and p<0.05 for all other tests. (E) Adipocyte total lipase activity. Rate of lipase activity was assessed by fluorescence as described in Materials and Methods in mice starved for 48 h. Data are the mean ± SD (n = 6).
