Understanding obesity: exploring cellular pathways and mechanisms

Obesity is a complex condition characterized by excessive fat accumulation, posing significant health and socioeconomic challenges globally. Our in-depth guide delves into the intricate cellular processes contributing to obesity, offering insights into potential therapeutic avenues.

Main cellular mechanisms included in this guide:

• Adipogenesis: understand the formation of fat-storing cells, key transcription factors, and intracellular signaling pathways.
• Lipid metabolism: learn about the processes involved in lipid digestion, absorption, transportation, storage, and degradation.
• Insulin signaling: discover the role of insulin in metabolism and the impact of insulin resistance.
• Neuroendocrine regulation of appetite: explore how hormones and neurotransmitters control appetite and food intake.
