Inflammatory gene expression in mesenteric and subcutaneous fat in response to gut antigen.

<p>OVA-sensitized BALB/c mice (black bars) or naïve BALB/c mice (white bars) were fed 1% egg-white-containing low- or high- fat diets for 2 or 10 weeks, and expression of OPN, IFNγ and FOXP3 were measured in mesenteric and subcutaneous adipose tissue. Groups contained five to six mice, and were compared by two-way ANOVA after log-transformation of the data. Groups not sharing the same letter were considered statistically significantly different by Bonferroni-adjusted post-hoc tests.
