Changes in fatty acid composition as a function of time for splenocytes isolated from mice fed different diets. Levels of (A) 18:1t (B) 18:3 n-3 (C) 20:4 n-6 (D) 20:5 n-3 (E) 22:5 n-3 (F) 22:6 n-3 and (G) n-6/n-3 PUFA ratio as a function of time after feeding mice ND or high-fat diets enriched in SFA, HFA, MUFA, and n-3 PUFA. (A–F) values (mean ± SEM) are percentage of the total fatty acids, n = 3 for 1 and 17 days, and n = 4 for 98 days. Asterisks indicate difference from ND, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. Values on the Y axis vary from plot to plot, and for some values, the error bars are smaller than the data points. For simplicity, only fatty acids that showed differences relative to the control are presented. HFA, hydrogenated fatty acid; MUFA, monounsaturated fatty acid ND, normal diet; PUFA; polyunsaturated fatty acid SFA, saturated fatty acid.
