Abstract
Diet has emerged as a pivotal factor in the current time for diet-induced obesity (DIO). A diet overloaded with fats and carbohydrates and unhealthy dietary habits contribute to the development of DIO through several mechanisms. The prominent ones include the transition of normal gut microbiota to obese microbiota, under-expression of AMPK, and abnormally high levels of adipogenesis. DIO is the root of many diseases. The present review deals with various aspects of DIO and its target proteins that can be specifically used for its treatment. Also, the currently available treatment strategies have been explored. It was found that the expression of five proteins, namely, PPARγ, FTO, CDK4, 14-3-3 ζ protein, and Galectin-1, is upregulated in DIO. They can be used as potential targets for drug-designing studies. Thus, with these targets, the treatment strategy for DIO using natural bioactive compounds can be a safer alternative to medications and bariatric surgeries.
饮食已成为当前饮食诱发肥胖(DIO)的关键因素。富含脂肪和碳水化合物的饮食以及不健康的饮食习惯通过多种机制导致了饮食诱发肥胖症的发生。其中最主要的机制包括正常肠道微生物群向肥胖微生物群的转变、AMPK 表达不足以及异常高水平的脂肪生成。DIO 是许多疾病的根源。本综述涉及 DIO 的各个方面及其可专门用于治疗的靶蛋白。此外,还探讨了目前可用的治疗策略。研究发现,PPARγ、FTO、CDK4、14-3-3 ζ 蛋白和 Galectin-1 这五种蛋白在 DIO 中的表达上调。它们可作为药物设计研究的潜在靶点。因此,有了这些靶点,利用天然生物活性化合物治疗 DIO 的策略可以成为药物治疗和减肥手术的更安全替代方案。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
