Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of myeloid Hdac7 overexpression on body weight gain in mice fed a chow versus HFHCHS diet. 8-10 wk old male MacBlue and MacHDAC7 mice were fed a chow diet (chow, n=6 per group) or a high fat, high cholesterol and high sucrose diet (HFHCHS, n=14-15 per group) for 24 wk. A. Weekly body weight. B. Average weight gain in mice fed a HFHCHS versus chow diet, calculated by substracting the average body weight of mice fed the chow diet from that of mice fed the HFHCHS. Data shown are mean ± SEM of n=6 (chow) or n=14-15 (HFHCHS) mice per group. Statistical analyses were perfomed using linear regression to compare the difference in body weight between MacBlue and MacHDAC7 mice fed on their respective diets or HFHCHS-induced weight gain (** p <0.01; **** p <0.0001).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Myeloid Hdac7 deletion reduces inflammatory responses in macrophages but does not affect hepatic inflammatory gene expression or serum CCL2 in mice fed a HFHCHS diet. A. Bone marrow cells from Hdac7 +/+ and Hdac7 -/- mice on the HFHCHS diet were collected and differentiated in the presence of CSF-1 for 7 days and lysed, after which protein levels of HDAC7 were determined by immunoblotting, with Tubulin as a loading control (n=6 per group). BMMs from a pair of 12 wk old Hdac7 +/+ and Hdac7 -/- mice on a chow diet were used as a positive control. B. Differentiated BMMs from mice of indicated genotypes on a HFHCHS diet were stimulated with LPS (0.5 ng/ml) for 4 h. CCL2 (left) and nigericin-induced IL-1β secretion (right) in culture supernatants were measured by ELISA (left hand side of graphs). BMMs from 12 wk old mice on a chow diet were used as inter-assay control (right hand side of graphs). Relative CCL2 and IL-1β production was normalised to the LPS-inducible production from BMMs of control Hdac7 +/+ mice on the chow diet. Data shown are mean ± SEM of 12 mice for each group and were analysed using repeated measures two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s correction (* p < 0.05; *** p < 0.001; **** p < 0.0001). C-E. Quantification of inflammatory mediators in the liver and circulation. mRNA levels of Ccl2 (C) and Il1b (D) (relative to Hprt ) were measured from freshly homogenised frozen livers.

( H ), CH-275, an SSTR1 agonist, ameliorated the abnormal delay in locomotor activity in SST m/m mice under long photoperiod. Representative double-plotted actograms of vehicle- ( upper ) or CH-275-treated SST m/m mice ( lower ) entrained for more than three weeks in LD18h:6 h and released to DD at ZT12. CH-275 was administered into the SCN of SST m/m mice using an osmotic mini pump. The time of the surgery is indicated by the stars. Amounts of phase advance (mean ± s.e.m; n = 6 (vehicle) and 7 (CH-275); * P < 0.05, unpaired t -test). The phase was determined by fitting a regression line across several days in DD and extrapolating it back to the first day.
