Food Intake and Body Composition. There is no difference in food intake (a) at baseline or following food deprivation. During RF tPA−/− consume less chow than tPA+/+ (p < 0.05). There are no differences in body weight (b) at any part of the study. Analysis of body composition over the course of the restricted feeding protocol (c) shows no difference in changes in lean or fat mass during the 48-h fast. During restricted feeding lean mass change is consistent between genotypes but fat mass change is different between genotypes (p < 0.05). Sample sizes for all groups are 10. Error bars represent standard error of the mean
