The food intake of mice fed particular diet containing different dietary fat (soybean oil, lard or fish oil) in the short term feeding (3 days) (A) or long term feeding experiment (4 weeks) (B). Values are means ± SE for 6 cages per group in (A) and 3 cages per group in (B). Each cage contained 4 mice. In the short term feeding experiment, the body weight and food intake of mice for the light–dark transition test, the open field test, and the elevated plus-maze test was shown. Two letters indicate a significant difference between two groups described by each initial: L is lard-fed, S is soybean oil-fed, and F is fish oil-fed group (p < 0.05, by Tukey-Kramer multiple comparison test and one-way ANOVA test).
