  1. Data shown represent means ± SEM of five to six mice per group. The results are representative of five independent experiments. Differences between groups were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance. aP < 0.05; bP < 0.0002; cP < 0.0001 for ob/ob versus +/? mice. ND, not done; SAA, serum amyloid A.
