Original Source: High-fat diet-induced obesity in animal models.
Epidemiological studies have shown a positive relationship between dietary fat intake and obesity. Since rats and mice show a similar relationship, they are considered an appropriate model for studying dietary obesity. The present paper describes the history of using high-fat diets to induce obesity in animals, aims to clarify the consequences of changing the amount and type of dietary fats on weight gain, body composition and adipose tissue cellularity, and explores the contribution of genetics and sex, as...

Junk-food worse than animal fat for obesity-induced inflammation
A diet based on American junk food could lead to more obesity-induced inflammation than a diet high in animal fat, [...]
Type: Original PaperThe effect of activation of liver X receptor by N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-N-[4-[2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]phenyl] benzenesulfonamide (T0901317) on high fat d...
Weight gain induced by high-fat diet increases active-period sleep and sleep fragmentation
(Society for the Study of Ingestive Behavior) Obesity is characterized by excess daytime sleep. It is unknown if body weight (BW) gain by high-fat diet (HFD) alters sleep patterns. We hypothesized tha...
High-Sugar, High-Salt Intake Creates 'A Ticking Time Bomb Of Health Problems'
The fat- and sugar-rich Western diet leads to a lifetime of health problems, dramatically increasing the risk of stroke or death at a younger age, according to a study presented today at the Canadian...

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Calorie restriction (CR) and endurance exercise are known to attenuate obesity and improve the metabolic syndrome. The aim of this study was to directly compare the effects of CR...
Effects of diet-induced obesity on motivation and pain behavior in an operant assay.
Obesity has been associated with multiple chronic pain disorders, including migraine. We hypothesized that diet-induced obesity would be associated with a reduced threshold for thermal nociception in...
Obesity and aging are both associated with increased inflammation in adipose tissue. In this study, we investigated effect of diet-induced obesity on inflammatory status in young and old mice. Young (...
