(A) Schematic diagram of the experimental procedure, mice were fed with normal diet (ND) or high-fat diet (HFD) for a total of 26 weeks. After 12 weeks, HFD-fed mice were consecutively injected with streptozotocin (STZ, 50 mg/kg) for 5 days. Diabetic phenotype was validated by fasting blood glucose ≥11.1 mmol/L at 7 days later (14 weeks). HFD-fed mice were consecutively injected with αIL33, immunoglobulin G (IgG), recombinant IL33 (rIL33), or vehicle for 12 weeks.
