Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how a high-fat diet (HFD) affects subcutaneous adipose tissue (scAT) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) over time, using rabbits as a model.
- Results showed that HFD caused changes in the blood cells of rabbits after 5 weeks, increasing inflammation and contributing to insulin resistance by 10 weeks, but did not significantly alter the scAT's lipid metabolism or inflammation.
- The findings suggest that targeting the inflammatory responses in PBMC could be crucial for preventing metabolic issues associated with obesity and improving health outcomes.
