Aim Critical limb ischaemia (CLI) is characterized by inadequate angiogenesis, arteriolar remodelling and chronic myopathy, which are most severe in type 2 diabetic patients. Hypertriglyceridaemia, commonly observed in these patients, compromises macrovascular function. However, the effects of high-fat diet-induced increases in circulating lipids on microvascular remodelling are not established. Here, we investigated if high-fat diet would mimic the detrimental effect of type 2 diabetes on post-ischaemia vascular remodelling and muscle regeneration, using a mouse model of hindlimb ischaemia. Methods Male C57Bl6/J mice were fed with normal or high-fat diets for 8 weeks prior to unilateral femoral artery ligation. Laser doppler imaging was used to assess limb perfusion recovery. Vascular recovery, inflammation, myofibre regeneration and fibrosis were assessed at 4 or 14 days post-ligation by histology and RNA analyses. Capillary-level haemodynamics were assessed by intravital microscopy of control and regenerating muscles 14 days post-ligation. Results High-fat diet increased muscle succinate dehydrogenase activity and capillary-level oxygen supply. At 4 days post-ligation, no diet differences were detected in muscle damage, inflammatory infiltration or capillary activation. At 14 days post-ligation, high fat-fed mice displayed accelerated limb blood flow recovery, elevated capillary and arteriole densities as well as greater red blood cell supply rates and capillary-level oxygen supply. Regenerating muscles from high fat-fed mice displayed lower interstitial fat and collagen deposition. Conclusion The muscle-level adaptations to high-fat diet improved multiple aspects of muscle recovery in response to ischaemia and did not recapitulate the worse outcomes seen in diabetic CLI patients.
