Effects of diet on metabolic traits and adipose tissue characteristics. Mice were fed CD (white bars) and HFD (grey bars). Blood and tissue were collected from male (black dots) and female (white dots) mice at age 24 ± 1.5 weeks (n = 7–11/group) and analysed as described under Material and methods. (A) animal weight, (B) blood glucose, (C) serum insulin, (D) serum fatty acids and (E-J) relative mRNA levels of (E–F) adipokines, (G-H) chemokines and (I-J) inflammation markers of pancreatic (pWAT), epididymal (eWAT) and inguinal (iWAT) adipose tissue expressed as 2−ΔCt relative to Rps13 mRNA (housekeeping gene) are presented as means ± SEM of n individual observations as indicated by the symbols in each plot. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001 denote significant differences.
