Effect of high fat diet and adrenalectomy on glucose tolerance. High fat diet led to impairments in glucose tolerance, which was slightly improved by adrenalectomy. *Sham-operated mice on a high fat diet exhibited significant impairments in glucose tolerance compared to chow sham-operated mice by ANOVA (p < 0.0001). †Adrenalectomized mice on a high-fat diet showed statistical improvements in glucose tolerance compared to diet sham-operated mice by ANOVA (p < 0.05). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Black square=chow sham-operated mice; white square=chow adrenalectomized mice; black circle=diet sham-operated mice; white circle=diet adrenalectomized mice.
