Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), originally synthesized and approved for cancer therapy, have recently been linked to the regulation of obesity. We evaluated whether LPM4870108, a small-molecule TKI with antitumor efficacy, contributes to obesity via DNA methylation. LPM4870108 (TKI) was administered orally to rats at 0, 1.25, 2.5, or 5.0 mg/kg (for 28 days, twice daily). Body weights (BWs) and food intake were recorded daily. After 28 days of administration, ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) tissues were collected for whole-genome transcriptomic and methylation sequencing to identify candidate genes. The mRNA expression and promoter methylation of candidate genes were analyzed by real-time RT-PCR and pyrosequencing, respectively. Protein levels of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) were determined by Western blot. LPM4870108 treatment substantially increased food intake and BW. Whole-genome transcriptomic and methylation profiling identified 415 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 124,935 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) within the VMH of LPM4870108-treated rats. The transcriptomic results were combined with whole-genome methylation sequencing data, followed by further verification via RT-PCR and pyrosequencing, through which the obesity-related candidate gene arginine vasopressin (AVP) was identified. Among all DEGs, AVP showed the most prominent change, with a negative association between its promoter methylation and mRNA expression level. Reduced protein expression of DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) in the VMH was also detected in LPM4870108-treated rats. These findings indicate that LPM4870108-stimulated hyperphagia and weight gain were associated with DNA hypomethylation and concomitant upregulation of the AVP gene.","PeriodicalId":14183,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Obesity","volume":"50 9","pages":"2034-2044"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148420932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sixty-seven percent of the intervention arms found significant improvements in hepatic fat, with no effect of physical activity interventions according to the meta-analysis. Bariatric Surgery appears as the only modality to improve histology-related parameters. According to the meta-regression, improvements in the Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease Activity Score are associated with the degree of weight loss and Body Mass Index reduction. The present results indicate improved overall liver status in response to weight loss interventions in this population, further studies remain however needed to clarify the effects of physical activity alone.

They also exhibited higher iron levels of the inferior temporal gyrus (ITG) (standardized β = 0.641, P = 0.021). The metabolic-related anthropometric indices have stronger associations with gait performance and indices of abdominal assessment more closely correlated with iron levels. The iron levels of ITG mediated the association of anthropometric indices (BMI, WC, Waist-to-Height Ratio, abdominal volume index and body roundness index) with the phase domain, with mediation proportions ranging from 8.95% to 13.45%.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Increased anthropometric indices are associated with relative prolongation of the stance phase and the iron levels of ITG mediates the associations. Our research offers valuable insights into the neuropathological mechanisms underlying of gait abnormalities in the community-dwelling older adults with overweight/obesity.</p>","PeriodicalId":14183,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Obesity","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148411748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
