Inflammation is associated with increased body mass, and purportedly, increased size of adipose cells. Our goal was to determine if increased size of adipose cells, is associated with localized inflammation in weight-stable, moderately-obese humans. 49 healthy, moderately-obese individuals were recruited for quantification of insulin resistance (modified insulin suppression test) and subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue biopsy. Cell size distribution was analyzed with Beckman Coulter Multisizer III, and inflammatory gene expression with rtPCR. Correlations between inflammatory gene expression and cell size parameters, with adjustment for gender and insulin resistance, were calculated. Adipose cells were bimodally distributed, with 47% in a “large” cell population, and the remainder in a “small” cell population. The median diameter of the large adipose cells was not associated with expression of inflammatory genes. Rather, the fraction of small adipose cells was associated with inflammatory gene expression, independent of gender, insulin resistance, and BMI. This association was more pronounced in insulin-resistant than insulin-sensitive individuals. Insulin resistance was also independently associated with expression of inflammatory genes. Ths study demonstrates that among moderately-obese, weight-stable individuals, an increased proportion of small adipose cells is associated with inflammation in subcutaneous adipose tissue, whereas size of mature adipose cells is not. The observed association between small adipose cells and inflammation may reflect impaired adipogenesis and/or terminal differentiation, but whether this is a cause or consequence of inflammation is unclear. This question and whether the small, large, or total adipose cell population contribute to the inflammation are topics for future research.
