In this mechanism, the value of Newton's constant is dark matter density-dependent, allowing for the possibility that astrophysical phenomena are very different in galaxies less dense than the Milky Way. The parameterized post Newtonian parameter $\gamma$, which quantifies the difference between kinematical and lensing probes, also depends on dark matter density. We calculate the effects of varying $G$ on various stages of stellar evolution, focusing on observables that impact cosmology: the Cepheid period--luminosity relation and the supernova Ia magnitude--redshift relation. Other potential tests of the model are also investigated including main-sequence, post-main sequence, and low mass dwarf stars. Finally, we discuss how extragalactic tests of $\gamma$ could provide complementary constraints.
