6 Mar 1964 | | Journal: | Science, 143 (), 1037-9 | | Abstract: | Obesity in migratory birds appears to differ from obesity in man in that gains and losses in body weight do not involve changes in the tissue structure of the body; fat is added to and used from preexisting tissue spaces without appreciable change in the water content or the nonfat dry weight of the body as a whole. Evidence is presented which supports the hypothesis that the nonfat body is essentially homeostatic during migration despite very large scale changes in total body weight. | | Source: | PubMed, pmid14107427 | | Services: | Forum | Review | Favorites | |
