Figure Lengend Snippet: Diversity of myeloid and lymphoid immune cells one month after VSG (A–C) Our short-term study (A) was designed to characterize early immunocyte changes in a group of animals with matched weight loss following VSG to the long-term study (B). VSG promoted M2-like macrophage polarization, increased the number of regulatory T cells, and decreased the number of proliferating T cells in the adipose tissue. Fold-change from baseline in PBLs, SAT, and VAT in the ratio of: (C) M2/M1 macrophages (M1: CD206 + CD11c + , M2: CD206 + CD11c − of CD14 + CD68 + CD3 - lym), M2/M1 in SAT n = 1, all others n = 2. (D) Tregs (FoxP3 + CD4 + of CD3 + lym). (E) t -SNE projection of 26,400 myeloid cells (CD3 − CD20 - /CD45 + lym) sampled equally from PBLs (n = 2), SAT (n = 2), and VAT (n = 2) at D0 and D28 after VSG. (F) 12 individual FlowSOM-identified myeloid populations from the t -SNE projection in (E) as fold change from D0. (G) Heatmap showing mean expression of indicated markers across the 12 FlowSOM myeloid populations. (H) t -SNE projection of 4860 Tregs (CD25 + CD127 - /CD4 + lym) sampled equally from PBLs (n = 2), SAT (n = 2), and VAT (n = 2) at D0 and D28 after VSG. (I) Six individual FlowSOM-identified Treg populations from the t -SNE projects in (H) as fold change from D0. (J) Heatmap showing mean expression of indicated markers across the six FlowSOM Treg populations. Data reported as group average ±SEM. See also , , and , and and .
