Consumption of a high-fat diet leads to the progressive growth of atherosclerotic lesions. Two new studies document that, despite similar overall exposure to high-fat diet over a lifetime, an intermittent consumption of high-fat diet early in life accelerates atherosclerosis compared with continuous consumption of a high-fat diet. The mechanisms for accelerated atherosclerosis include reprogramming of macrophages and neutrophils.

食用高脂肪饮食会导致动脉粥样硬化病变进行性生长。两项新的研究证明，尽管一生中总体上暴露于高脂肪饮食的总体程度相似，但与持续食用高脂肪饮食相比，在生命早期间歇性食用高脂肪饮食会加速动脉粥样硬化。加速动脉粥样硬化的机制包括巨噬细胞和中性粒细胞的重编程。
