Popis: | The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that the inflammatory response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vivo is accompanied by down-regulation of toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 in adipose tissue, and a source of protected n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) attenuates this response. Seventy-two castrated male pigs were individually fed either a control (CONT) diet, or the CONT diet containing 1.87% (LF) or 7.50% (HF) protected n-3 PUFA on a weight basis for 7 weeks. Adipose and muscle tissue biopsy samples were taken at Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 to assess gene expression and/or confirm tissue enrichment with eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid and reflected the n-3 PUFA contained in the diet. The LPS challenge was performed at week 7 and consisted of sequential injections of 10 and 2.5 mug LPS per kilogram of body weight 23 h apart. The LPS challenge resulted in a marked down-regulation (P=.004) of TLR4 at the protein level in the adipose tissue of challenged vs. control pigs, but LF and HF clearly blocked this response at the mRNA level. Although LF and HF also attenuated (P |
