RoleofPPARgammaCoactivatorsinObesityandThermogenesis
Nuclear hormone receptors are transcription factors that bind DNA and regulate transcription in a ligand-dependent manner. PPAR-gamma is a member of this gene family that is activated by fatty acids and thiazolidinedione drugs that plays a role in insulin sensitivity and adipogenesis (See Visceral Fat Deposits and the Metabolic Syndrome pathway). Like PPAR-alpha and other members of this gene family, PPAR-gamma activ......阅读全文

研究表明棕色脂肪有助于减肥
加拿大渥太华大学科学家使用肌肉干细胞,在实验室老鼠身上制造出可以燃烧卡路里的棕色脂肪,有助于治疗加拿大人日渐普遍的肥胖症。据介绍,棕色脂肪是哺乳类动物身体制造的两种脂肪之一。棕色脂肪与白色脂肪相比,属于好脂肪,因为它属于发热组织,能够燃烧掉存在白色脂肪中的卡路里。棕色脂肪多在新生婴儿及冬眠动物体内发

Obesity:吃货更瘦?!是真的吗?
试想一下你是一个资深吃货,即一个爱冒险的食客,这常常和个人嗜好吃美食且过量吃东西密切相关;然而近日,一项来自康奈尔大学食品研究实验室的最新研究表明,我们往往会认为资深吃货应该是比较肥胖且体重较重的个体,然而实际上恰恰相反,资深吃货往往体重较轻,而且相比并不爱冒险饮食的食客他们更加健康一些。 相
