Weight loss regulates inflammation‐related genes in white adipose tissue of obese subjects
Abstract
Adipose tissue produces inflammation and immunity molecules suspected to be involved in obesity‐related complications. The pattern of expression and the nutritional regulation of these molecules in humans are poorly understood. We analyzed the gene expression profiles of subcutaneous white adipose tissue from 29 obese subjects during very low calorie diet (VLCD) using cDNA microarray and reverse transcription quantitative PCR. The patterns of expression were compared with that of 17 non‐obese subjects. We determined whether the regulated genes were expressed in adipocytes or stromavascular fraction cells. Gene expression profiling identified 100 inflammation‐related transcripts that are regulated in obese individuals when eating a 28 day VLCD but not a 2 day VLCD. Cluster analysis showed that the pattern of gene expression in obese subjects after 28 day VLCD was closer to the profile of lean subjects than to the pattern of obese subjects before VLCD. Weight loss improves the inflammatory profile of obese subjects through a decrease of proinflammatory factors and an increase of anti‐inflammatory molecules. The genes are expressed mostly in the stromavascular fraction of adipose tissue, which is shown to contain numerous macrophages. The beneficial effect of weight loss on obesity‐related complications may be associated with the modification of the inflammatory profile in adipose tissue.— Clément, K., Viguerie, N., Poitou, C., Carette, C., Pelloux, V., Curat, C.

“Although some molecules secreted by WAT, such as leptin and adiponectin, are synthesized by mature adipocytes [8], the non-adipose SVF, comprising infiltrated macrophages among other cellular types, is a source of inflammation-related molecules that may exert a local action on adipose tissue biology, particularly within the enlarged WAT [9-11].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
