Mitochondrial DNA content was modestly but significantly higher in 8WVeh skeletal muscle than chow-fed counterparts (32.5 ± 5.5 ng/μl and 17.3 ± 5.4 ng/μl, respectively, P = 0.046), but that difference was highly significant in 16W (92.2 ± 24.1 ng/μl in 16WVeh and 7.5 ± 2.4 ng/μl in chow-fed controls, P = 8.4 × 10 –9 ).
