Leptin Receptor Reactivation Restores Brain Function in Early-Life lepr-Deficient Mice

Reactivation of Insulin Receptors Can Restore Brain Function in Early Lepr-Deficient Mice Background Obesity is a chronic disease caused by excessive fat accumulation, affecting both body and brain health. Deficiency of the insulin receptor (Leptin receptor, Lepr) is considered an important factor in the pathogenesis of obesity. Insulin plays a cru...

Obesity Disrupts the Pituitary-Hepatic UPR Communication Leading to NAFLD Progression

Obesity Disrupts the Pituitary-Hepatic UPR Communication Leading to NAFLD Progression

Obesity Disrupts Pituitary-Hepatic UPR Communication Leading to NAFLD Progression Background and Research Objectives In recent years, the incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has increased significantly. Research suggests that obesity, a major risk factor for NAFLD, disrupts hepatic immunometabolic homeostasis by affecting systemi...
