The effects of weight cycling on the metabolic homeostasis
Purpose: To investigate the effects of weight cycling on the metabolic homeostasis Methods: C57BL/6 mice were fed with high fat diet (HF) (60% kcal fat; Research Diets Inc., New Brunswick, NJ) or low fat diet (LF) (10% kcal fat; Research Diets Inc.) at 6-week-old. Nine weeks after in HF, a part of mice was switched to LF for one week followed by one week HF as one cycle, and the mice under this one week diet switch protocol for 10 cycles were named HF-LF cycled mice, while the left part of mice under continuously HF-feeding were named HF mice. The mice kept in the continuously LF-feeding were named LF mice Results: We identified many changed genes in the eWAT by RNA-sequencing. Conclusions: This finding provides a signaling in eWAT upon weight cycling Overall design: 6 samples (F-L rep1, F-L rep2, F-H rep1, F-H rep2, F-H-L rep1, F-H-L rep2) for mRNA sequencing
