Low-Grade Inflammation Is Not Present in Former Obese Males but Adipose Tissue Macrophage Infiltration Persists
Macrophage infiltration in two subcutaneous adipose tissue depots and systemic low-grade inflammation were studied in post-obese (PO), obese (O), and control (C) subjects. Young males were recruited into PO: (<i>n</i> = 10, weight-loss avg. 26%, BMI: 26.6 ± 0.7, mean ±SEM kg/m<sup>...
