CD206+ M2-like ATMs depletion promote insulin sensitivity in lean mice. a, b Glucose and insulin concentrations in an intra-peritoneal glucose tolerance test (IP-GTT), and c the glucose concentrations in an intra-peritoneal insulin tolerance test (IP-ITT) in NC-fed mice after DT treatment (n = 4–6 per group). d–f Western blot analysis of Akt phosphorylation in the eWAT, liver and skeletal muscle of DT-treated CD206DTR and WT littermates. (MW = Molecular weight). g Relative mRNA expression of mitochondrial, smaller adipocytes and adipogenesis marker genes in the eWAT (n = 3–5 per group). h Relative mRNA expression of gluconeogenesis and fatty acid oxidation genes in the liver and i skeletal muscle (n = 3–5). The data are shown as the means ± SEM. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared with littermates by Student’s t-test
