Effect of NE injection on SUVpeak for fasted male mice. SUVpeak is plotted for each genotype with (w/NE) and without (w/o NE) NE injection. There is a significant increase in the SUVpeak in the WT mice with NE injection (p < 0.001). On the other hand, SUVpeak in KO mice seems to either stay the same or decrease with NE injection. In addition, the average SUVpeak in KO mice without NE stimulation is much higher than that in WT mice (p = 0.046)
