Aims/hypothesisThe role of IL-6 in the development of obesity and hepatic insulin resistance is unclear and still the subject of controversy. We aimed to determine whether global deletion of Il6 in mice (Il6−/−) results in standard chow-induced and high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity, hepatosteatosis, inflammation and insulin resistance.MethodsMale, 8-week-old Il6−/− and littermate control mice were fed a standard chow or HFD for 12 weeks and phenotyped accordingly.ResultsIl6−/− mice displayed… CONTINUE READING
