Exploring the impact of exercise combined with diet intervention on obesity chronic inflammation based on fatty acid profiles and PBMC immune phenotypes
Objective To explore the effect of exercise combined with dieting on chronic inflamma-tion based on fatty acids and peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC)immunophenotypes.Methods Thirty-one obese volunteers(age:30.1±5.5 years,height:170.1±8.1 cm,weight:101.13±21.40 kg,BMI:34.66±5.01 kg/m2)were recruited and given a 5-week program of exercise combined with diet-ing.The exercise regimen consisted of daily 3-hour training at 60%-75%HRmax intensity,while the di-eting regimen was a moderate to high energy restriction model,with a daily reduction of 250 kcal in the 1st week and 600 kcal from the 2nd to 5th weeks.Before and after the intervention,all volunteers were measured morphological indicators(body weight,BMI,fat-free mass,body fat percentage,waist-to-hip ratio and visceral fat index),blood lipids(total cholesterol,triglycerides,high-density lipopro-tein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol),high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),visfatin(VF),and the content of fatty acids in the blood.Moreover,the expression of cell surface receptors CD36,TLR4,and nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)on PBMC sub-sets was tested before and after intervention.Results After intervention,a significant decrease was ob-served in the body composition indices,as well as in the four major blood lipid parameters.Levels of chronic inflammatory markers,including hs-CRP,VF and TNF-α,decreased significantly(P<0.01).Except for C6:0,C11:0,C12:0,C23:0,and C24:0,the levels of other fatty acids also decreased sig-nificantly(P<0.05,P<0.01).Among the measured fatty acids,13,31,and 15 were found to be signif-icantly and positively correlated with hs-CRP,VF,and TNF-α,respectively(P<0.05,P<0.01).More-over,the expression of monocyte cluster of differentiation 36(CD36),Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4),and nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)in PBMC subsets decreased significantly after the intervention(P<0.05).In lymphocytes,CD36 and TLR4 expression lowered significantly after intervention(P<0.05 and P<0.01),while in granulocytes,CD36 and NF-κB expression decreased significantly(P<0.01 and P<0.05).Conclusion Exercise combined with dietary intervention can better body composition and physi-cal function in obese individuals,alleviating their chronic inflammation.The reduction in chronic in-flammation is closely related to the decrease in circulating fatty acid levels,which results in the re-duced expression of CD36 and TLR4 receptors on the surface of PBMC and the inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway.
