Outline of Final Research Achievements |
High-fat diet (HFD) feeding induces the reduction of IL-10 synthesis from spleen and this decrease promotes inflammation and ectopic fat deposit in multiple organs, disorder of glucose and lipid metabolism, and hypertension. Moreover, switching to a low-fat diet (LFD) restores IL-10 synthesis in spleen and improved multiple organs damage induced by HFD feeding. Clinically, LFD feeding is recommended to prevent the development of metabolic syndrome. However, IL-10 synthesis ability derived from spleen is important to utilize switching from HFD to LFD1 feeding. Thus, "splenic function" might be necessary to consider the treatment strategy to metabolic syndrome.
