The disassembly of the neuromuscular synapse in high-fat diet-induced obese male mice

The disassembly of the neuromuscular synapse in high-fat diet-induced obese male mice

Objective: A sustained high fat diet in mice mimics many features of human obesity. We used male and female Non-Swiss albino mice to investigate the impact of short and long-term high-fat diet-(HFD)-induced obesity on the peripheral neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and whether obesity-related synaptic s...
