Cell architecture and inflammation in visceral white adipose tissue (WAT). (A) Adipocyte area and distribution, (B) mean adipocyte area, (C) total cell count of the stroma vascular fraction (SVF)/g visceral WAT, (D) endothelial (CD31+), preadipocytes (CD34+), macrophages (F4/80/CD11b+), total lymphocytes and T cells (CD3+), (E) macrophage immunostaining and number (%) per adipocyte count, (F) western blot analysis of phosphorylated and total proteins involved in inflammatory pathways in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) which became diabetic (HFD-D), diabetes-resistant (HFD-DR) and mice fed a diet supplemented with gluco-oligosaccharides (HFD+GOS). Data are shown as mean ± SEM; *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 (unpaired Student t test; n=5–12 per group).
