Flow cytometric determination of T cell, T helper cell subset, and macrophage proportions in the spleen. Proportions of CD4+CD8 of CD3+ cells and CD4CD8+ of CD3+ cells, and the ratio of CD4+CD8/CD4CD8+ cells. CD4+Foxp3+ cells, Treg cells (CD4+CD25+ Foxp3+), Foxp3+:RORγt+, CD11c+CD206 of CD64+ cells, CD11cCD206+ of CD64+ cells, M2 (CD64+CD11cCD206+), and M1:M2 in spleen (n = 6 per group). Data obtained from each group were compared using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by post hoc Tukey's multiple comparison tests. *Significant (P < 0.05) difference. CN chow diet and non-treatment control (saline, 200 μl/day), CP chow diet and methylprednisolone treatment (5 mg/kg/day), HN high fat-diet and non-treatment control (saline, 200 μl/day), HP high fat-diet and methylprednisolone treatment (5 mg/kg/day).
