| Body Weight | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group | No. | 12 wk, g | 20 wk, g | Change, % | Gastroc, mg | Soleus, mg | Epi Fat, mg | TL, mm |
| Wild Type | 8 | 25.3 ± 0.05 | 28.8 ± 0.01 | 9.2 ± 0.08 | 150 ± 3 | 9.6 ± 0.03 | 445 ± 32 | 17.5 ± 0.02 |
| Mild | 6 | 26.5 ± 1.1 | 25.8 ± 1.2 | 0.7 ± 1.1† | 135 ± 7 | 9.6 ± 0.06 | 334 ± 50† | 17.3 ± 00.01 |
| Severe | 8 | 26.4 ± 0.07 | 18 ± 0.05* | −20 ± 3* | 80 ± 5* | 6.3 ± 0.03* | 0 ± 0* | 17.1 ± 0.02 |
Values are means ± SE. Mild, ApcMin/+ mice having mild cachexia symptoms at 20 wk of age; Severe, ApcMin/+ mice having severe cachexia symptoms at 20 wk of age; Gastroc, gastrocnemius muscle; soleus, soleus muscle; epi fat, epididymal fat pad; TL, tibia length. Significance was set at P < 0.05.
†Different from wild-type group;
*different from all other groups.
