title: Effect of intermittent feeding with high-fat diet on changes of glycogen, protein and fat content in liver and skeletal muscle in the laboratory mouse.
abstract: After 8 weeks of intermittent fasting, mice fed both a standard laboratory diet and a high-fat diet became hyperphagic and showed an increased amount of glycogen storage in the liver. An important effect of the adaptation to intermittent feeding with a high-fat diet seems to be an activation of the oxidation of lipids. Lipid oxidation prevails over lipogenesis so that the protein levels in the liver and skeletal muscle are preserved and maintained constant.
