The FATZO mouse is a polygenic model with an intact leptin system and was developed by cross breeding of C57BL6/J (C57) with AKR/J. FATZO mice have been used in many dysmetabolic studies. The epidemic health issue of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD, including NASH) is the organ dysmetabolic manifestation. This study was to investigate a high fat/fructose diet (HFFD) on liver function in FATZO mice. The body weights of FATZO (n=30) at age of 9 to 10 weeks were significantly heavier than those of age-matched C57 (n=19) mice (39±0.4g vs. 23±0.2g, p Disclosure X. Wang: None. W. Ye: None. Y.
