The effect of cluster of differentiation (CD)36 on regulatory T cells (Treg) was investigated in gonadal (GN) adipose tissues and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) of wild-type (WT) and CD36 deficient (CD36(-/-)) mice kept on standard fat (SFD, lean) or on high fat diet (HFD, obese). GN adipose tissue mass was smaller, but MLN size larger for obese CD36(-/-) versus obese WT mice. Overall, the reduction of Treg cells in GN adipose tissue and MLN after a HFD is much more prominent in WT than CD36(-/-) mice. Moreover, CD36(-/-) mice may be protected against obesity-related chronic inflammation.
在以标准脂肪饮食(SFD,瘦型)或高脂饮食(HFD,肥胖型)饲养的野生型(WT)和CD36缺陷型(CD36(-/-))小鼠的性腺(GN)脂肪组织和肠系膜淋巴结(MLN)中,研究了分化簇(CD)36对调节性T细胞(Treg)的影响。与肥胖的WT小鼠相比,肥胖的CD36(-/-)小鼠的GN脂肪组织质量较小,但MLN尺寸较大。总体而言,高脂饮食后,WT小鼠的GN脂肪组织和MLN中Treg细胞的减少比CD36(-/-)小鼠更为显著。此外,CD36(-/-)小鼠可能对肥胖相关的慢性炎症具有保护作用。
