Figure 2From: High saturated fat and low carbohydrate diet decreases lifespan independent of body weight in micePerformance on memory tasks after 16 months of treatment. (A) Latency to find the platform during the acquisition phase of the Morris water mazetest (means ± S.E.M.) and (B) time spent in the target quadrant during the probe task (means ± S.E.M.). (C) Inhibitory avoidance task latency to step down onto the platform (median/interquartile ranges) during training and at the short- and long-term memory tests. Controldiet(n = 12) and high fat diet groups (diet-induced obese (DIO), n = 7; diet resistant (DR), n = 6). *P< 0.05, test sections > training section.Back to article page
