Hypertrophic adipocytes have many impaired biological functions. In contrast, hyperplastic adipocytes can reduce the negative metabolic effects of obesity. Thus, understanding the mechanisms of adaptive WAT expansion is essential for optimizing lipid storage and preventing the adverse metabolic consequences of obesity. Hedgehog (Hh) signaling has been shown to improve adipose health and can be a pharmacological target to ameliorate obesity-induced metabolic abnormalities.

EFs were assessed using the Stroop Color-Word test (inhibitory control), Corsi Block-Tapping task (working memory), and Wisconsin Card Sorting test (cognitive flexibility). Children's weight status was objectively measured and classified into three groups. Multivariable linear regression was performed, with stratified analysis by weight status.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A total of 502 children were included. In the overall sample, no significant associations between irisin and EFs in children were found. However, higher irisin levels were significantly associated with better Stroop Color-Word test performance among children with overweight/obesity (response time: β = -0.129, 95%CI: -0.228, -0.030; word interference time: β = -0.088, 95%CI: -0.163, -0.013). Null significant associations in the groups with thinness or normal-weight were found. Weight status significantly modified the associations of irisin with EFs (P<sub>interaction</sub><0.05).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Children with overweight/obesity might be more sensitive to the effect of irisin on EFs, especially on inhibitory control. Irisin might be a promising target to promote EF development in overweight/obese children.</p>","PeriodicalId":48802,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Endocrinological Investigation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143598098","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}
