Histomorphological alterations of adipose tissue in adult mice subjected to fasting and refeeding. The effects of fasting and refeeding on histomorphological alterations of various adipose tissues in adult mice (a-h; arrow in panel b points to the ‘multilocular’ fat cells; arrow in panel d points to the slimmed adipocytes). The average area of adipocytes (μm2) in every 100-mm2 area range of various adipose tissues was quantified using Image Pro Plus software (i-l) (n = 6-8). Scale bar represents 100 μm, all data are presented as the mean ± SEM. * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001 compared with control (one-way ANOVA)
