脂肪细胞因子对脂肪细胞增殖分化的反馈调节作用

肥胖已被证实是胰岛素抵抗、2 型糖尿病、高血压、高脂血症及冠状动脉粥样硬化性心脏病等代谢性疾病发生的重要诱因.肥胖的发生主要是由于体内脂肪细胞的异常分化和增殖,最终导致脂肪细胞异常增多及细胞内脂质过度沉积产生的.脂肪细胞的增殖分化受到多种因素的调控,其中脂肪细胞因子作为脂肪组织分泌的肽类激素,也在脂肪细胞的发育分化过程中起重要的反馈调节作用.大多数肥胖患者体内存在脂肪细胞因子分泌异常及其相应的功能紊乱.本文将对几种主要的脂肪细胞因子在脂肪细胞发育分化中的作用及最新研究进展进行简要综述及讨论.     

Exploring the role of BCHE in the onset of Diabetes, Obesity and Neurological Disorders

Diabetes, Obesity and Neurological disturbances, most often show co-occurrence. There has been an extensive research in this domain, but the exact mechanism underlying the co-occurrence of the three conditions is still an enigma. The current paper is an approach to establish the role of Butyryl cholinesterase (BCHE) in Diabetes, Obesity and Neurological disorders by performing a comparative analysis with Neuroligin (NLGN2) a protein belonging to the same family. BCHE has its role in glucose regulation, Lipid metabolism and nerve signaling. Emphasis is laid on BCHE's diverse functions whose impediment affects the above mentioned metabolic pathways. Insilco techniques were employed to analyze the sequence, structural and functional similarities of the two proteins. A point mutation is focused which is common to both BCHE and Neuroligin. The mutation occurs at the homologous position in both the proteins making them deficient. This affects the three metabolic pathways leading to the respective disorders. The work describes the pathway that describes the role of BCHE in the onset of obesity mediated diabetes. The pathway further explains the association between Diabetes, Obesity and neurological disturbances.     

Narrative review of ferroptosis in obesity

Obesity is widely recognized as a major global health problem caused by a chronic energy imbalance resulting from a combination of excess caloric intake and insufficient energy expenditure. Excessive energy intake and physical inactivity are traditional risk factors for obesity. Obesity is a risk factor for many diseases, including hypertension, diabetes and tumours. Recent studies have found a strong link between ferroptosis and obesity. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent regulated cell death caused by iron overload and reactive oxygen species-dependent excessive accumulation of lipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis is involved in many biological processes, such as amino acid metabolism, iron metabolism and lipid metabolism. Some potential strategies to reduce the adverse effects of ferroptosis on obesity are suggested and future research priorities are highlighted.

Mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum: Targets for a better insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle?

Obesity and its associated metabolic disorders represent a major health burden, with economic and social consequences. Although adapted lifestyle and bariatric surgery are effective in reducing body weight, obesity prevalence is still rising. Obese individuals often become insulin-resistant. Obesity impacts on insulin responsive organs, such as the liver, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle, and increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes and cancer. In this review, we discuss the effects of obesity and insulin resistance on skeletal muscle, an important organ for the control of postprandial glucose. The roles of mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum in insulin signaling are highlighted and potential innovative research and treatment perspectives are proposed.

Body weight and tissue composition in rats made obese by a cafeteria diet. Effect of 24 hours starvation

Rat body size and tissue composition changes from pre-weaning to three months age resulted from voluntary hyperphagia triggered by offering a cafeteria diet. The effects of a 24 hour starvation period in both cafeteria and chow fed controls were compared. Obesity develops earlier in females than in males. This difference is related to the growth patterns in both sexes. Obesity occurs at the stages of development when growth rate decreases. Cafeteria fed female rats attained a 32% greater weight than their controls, with lumbar adipose cords that were 4 times heavier and brown interscapular adipose tissue 2 times heavier than controls. The overall cafeteria fed versus chow fed rat differences in the effects of a 24 hour starvation, were minor but less liver glycogen and much more skeletal muscle lipids were mobilized in the cafeteria fed rats than in controls.
