Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of different dietary lipids on the energy homeostasis through changes gut microbial compositions. As a result, we found that intake of specific dietary lipids improved body and tissue weight gain, glucose intolerance, adipose tissue inflammation, and gut microbial compositions in a high-fat diet-induced obesity mouse model to levels comparable to those of healthy mice.
