Diet induced obesity is independent of metabolic endotoxemia, Tlr4 signalling and hypothalamic inflammation


ABSTRACT: A number of studies have proposed that excess food intake, particularly of high fat diets arise due dysregulation of homeostatic mechanisms regulating neuroendocrine control of appetite and energy balance. Current dogma suggests high fat diets invoke hypothalamic inflammation which reduces hypothalamic sensitivity to metabolic and hormonal cues of conveying peripheral status of energy balance, such as leptin and insulin. A hypothesis for the mechanism leading to hypothalamic inflammation is based on high fat diet mediated changes in gut microbiota which are then proposed to increase circulating levels of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). This in turn activates a hypothalamic inflammatory response via the toll-like receptor (TLR4) and CD14. The aim of this study was to determine hypothalamic gene expression in response to long term feeding of a high fat diet, taking into account the importance of using a control diet with a similar composition and balanced for sucrose content.
