Diet-Induced Obesity Exacerbates Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress Responses in Mice Exposed to Cigarette Smoke

To identify biosignatures that describe these lifestyle susceptibility factors, we performed parallel exposures of regular weight (RW) C57BL/6 and diet-induced obese (DIO) C57BL/6 mice to cigarette smoke, either mainstream (MS) or sidestream (SS), mimicking both the smoker and environmental exposure through second-hand smoke, respectively.
