Leukocytes and inflammatory signals in adipose tissue, liver and quadriceps. (a) Number of Ly6C− and Ly6C+ populations in MΦ and IMΦ from inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT), interscapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT), liver and quadriceps (quad) from uninfected mice or mice infected for 8 wk. (b) Number of NK1.1 cells in perigonadal white adipose tissue (pgWAT) from uninfected mice or mice infected for 8 wk. (c) Gene expression of Ccl2, Ccl5, Cxcl1, Cxcl2, Il1b, Tnf1, and Il6 in pgWAT, iWAT and iBAT at 2 and 4 wk. p.i. and liver and quad at 2, 4 and 8 wk. p.i. Gene expression of Il4 and Il10 in pgWAT, iWAT and iBAT at 8 wk. p.i. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 6–8). All the experiments were repeated at least twice. *P < 0·05 and **P < 0·01.
