Effect of HF diet supplemented with PA or LA on the mRNA levels of inflammatory markers in VAT. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis was performed in the visceral adipose tissue (VAT) for the mRNA levels of Adgre, a macrophage marker (A) and other inflammatory genes (BG). Values are expressed as mean ± SEM of 6–8 samples in each group. * p < 0.05, & p < 0.01, and ^ p < 0.001 versus CD; @ p < 0.05, # p < 0.01, and $ p <0.001 versus HF + PA. Adgre1 (Emr-1), EGF-like module containing, mucin-like, hormone receptor like 1; Ccl2, C-C chemokine ligand 2; Mmp3, Matrix metallopeptidase 3; Ccl3, C-C chemokine ligand 3; Tnfα, Tumor necrosis factor, alpha; Mmp12, Matrix metallopeptidase 12; Serpine1, Serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade E; CD, chow diet; HF + PA, high fat + palmitic acid; HF + LA, high fat + lauric acid.
