Treatment of wild-type mice with 2,3-butanediol, a urinary biomarker of Fmo5−/− mice, decreases plasma cholesterol and epididymal fat deposition

We previously showed that Fmo5−/− mice exhibit a lean phenotype and slower metabolic ageing. Their characteristics include lower plasma glucose and cholesterol, greater glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, and a reduction in age-related weight gain and whole-body fat deposition. In this paper,...
