“…Mice-The GPx1 overexpressing (OE) mice became obese at 6 months of age, and developed hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, hyperlipidemia, and insulin resistance, along with elevated pancreatic β cell mass, islet insulin secretion, plasma leptin concentration, and hepatic lipogenesis [22][23][24]. Diet restriction (3 vs. 5 g of feed/day) of OE mice from 2 to 6 months of age [55] prevented all their phenotypes except for fasting hyperinsulinemia and hyper-secretion of insulin after glucose stimulation [55].…”
