From: Compared to casein, bovine lactoferrin reduces plasma leptin and corticosterone and affects hypothalamic gene expression without altering weight gain or fat mass in high fat diet fed C57/BL6J mice

Effect of dietary bovine lactoferrin on plasma leptin (a), corticosterone (b), and insulin (c) concentrations taken from male C57/BL6J mice after 13 weeks of experimental diet feeding. Data is represented as mean values ± SEM (n = 8). Different letters indicate significant differences, and significance is determined at P < 0.05. Abbreviations: SAT, subcutaneous adipose tissue; LFD, 10 % energy fat diet with 20 % energy casein; HFD, 45 % energy fat diet with 20 % energy casein; HFD + Lac, 45 % energy fat diet with 20 % energy lactoferrin
