Intermittent and Limited Exposure to a High-Fat Diet Prevents Social Defeat-Induced Increase in Ethanol Intake and Neuroinflammation

The presented data belong to male OF1 strain mice subjected to social stress (social defeat) and fed either a standard diet or a binge-like high-fat diet (HFD). This database includes changes in animal body weight, the social interaction ratio in the social interaction test (SIT), and the g/kg of ethanol consumed by each animal over the 8 days of the DID protocol. Additionally, gene expression data for the following genes in the striatum and hippocampus are presented: Il6, Tnfa, Ccl2, Mfn1, Hmgb1, Ucp2, and Mfn2
