Effect of CDCArg on body weight, food intake and adipose tissue weight. Mice were fed (Ad libitum) for 5 weeks. Treatment groups: Control - low fat diet (LFD), high fat diet (HFD), CDCArg (0.5% w/w) added to the HFD, HFD + cholic acid (CA, 0.5% w/w) and HFD + L-arg 1.25% in the drinking water, n = 8-9 in each group. (A) Daily consumption of food at weeks 2, 3, 4 and 5. (B) Animals weight: Animals weight was measured throughout the experiment at the beginning of each week. (C) Testicular adipose tissue weight. Statistics were performed using analysis of repeated measurements of weight. Different groups that are statistically different with probability of P < 0.05 are indicated by different letters.
