N2 - BACKGROUND: Obesity and type 2 diabetes increase the risk of atherosclerosis. It is unknown to what extent this reflects direct effects on the arterial wall or secondary effects of hyperlipidaemia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The effect of obesity and type 2 diabetes on the development of atherosclerosis and inflammation, in the absence or presence of hyperlipidaemia, was assed in wild-type (n = 36) and human apolipoprotein B (apoB) transgenic mice (n = 27) that were fed normal chow or 60% fat for 12 months. RESULTS: Fat-feeding caused obesity, glucose intolerance and elevated plasma leptin and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) in both wild-type and apoB transgenic mice. In wild-type mice, plasma very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were unaffected by fat-feeding. ApoB transgenic mice had mildly elevated plasma LDL-C (approximately 1 mmol L(-1)), which was slightly increased by fat-feeding. Sixty-four per cent of fat-fed wild-type mice vs. 7% of chow-fed wild-type mice had lipid-staining intimal lesions in the aortic root (P = 0.002). Eighty-six per cent of fat-fed apoB transgenic mice had lipid-staining lesions and the median lesion area was 8.0 times higher than in fat-fed wild-type mice (P = 0.001). Intracellular adhesion molecule-1 staining of the aortic endothelium was most pronounced in the fat-fed apoB transgenic mice. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that diet-induced type 2 diabetes causes early atherosclerosis in the absence of dyslipidaemia, and that even a moderate level of LDL-C markedly augments this effect.
