Whole-body ablation of liver fatty acid-binding protein (LFABP) in mice was shown to alleviate several of these metabolic complications; high-fat (HF)-fed LFABP knockout (LFABP-\/-) mice developed higher fat mass than their wild-type (WT) counterparts but displayed a metabolically healthy obese (MHO) phenotype with normoglycemia, normoinsulinemia, and reduced hepatic steatosis compared with WT. Since LFABP is expressed in both liver and intestine, in the present study, we generated LFABP conditional knockout (cKO) mice to determine the contributions of LFABP specifically within the liver or within the intestine, to the whole-body phenotype of the global knockout. Methods: Female liver-specific LFABP knockout (LFABPliv-\/-), intestine-specific LFABP knockout (LFABPint-\/-), and \u201cfloxed\u201d LFABP (LFABPfl\/fl) control mice were fed a 45% Kcal fat semipurified HF diet for 12 weeks. Results: While not as dramatic as found for whole-body LFABP-\/- mice, both LFABPliv-\/- and LFABPint-\/- mice had significantly higher body weights and fat mass compared with LFABPfl\/fl control mice. As with the global LFABP nulls, both LFABPliv-\/- and LFABPint-\/- mice remained normoglycemic and normoinsulinemic. Despite their greater fat mass, the LFABPliv-\/- mice did not develop hepatic steatosis. Additionally, LFABPliv-\/- and LFABPint-\/- mice had higher endurance exercise capacity when compared with LFABPfl\/fl control mice. Conclusions: The results suggest, therefore, that either liver-specific or intestine-specific ablation of LFABP in female mice is sufficient to induce, at least in part, the MHO phenotype observed following whole-body ablation of LFABP.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu17050753","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,21]],"date-time":"2025-02-21T07:53:06Z","timestamp":1740124386000},"page":"753","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Tissue-Specific Ablation of Liver Fatty Acid-Binding Protein Induces a Metabolically Healthy Obese Phenotype in Female Mice"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4855-8516","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hiba Radhwan","family":"Tawfeeq","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutritional Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"},{"name":"Rutgers Center for Lipid Research, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Atreju I.","family":"Lackey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutritional Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"},{"name":"Rutgers Center for Lipid Research, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yinxiu","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutritional Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9146-1093","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anastasia","family":"Diolintzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutritional Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"},{"name":"Rutgers Center for Lipid Research, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sophia M.","family":"Zacharisen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutritional Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yin Hei","family":"Lau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutritional Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Loredana","family":"Quadro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rutgers Center for Lipid Research, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"},{"name":"Department of Food Science, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 07102, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5482-1777","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Judith","family":"Storch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutritional Sciences, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"},{"name":"Rutgers Center for Lipid Research, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"288","DOI":"10.1038\/s41574-019-0176-8","article-title":"Obesity: Global epidemiology and pathogenesis","volume":"15","year":"2019","journal-title":"Nat.
