The role of epigenetics in hypothalamic energy balance control: implications for obesity
Despite enormous social and scientific efforts, obesity rates continue to increase worldwide. While genetic factors contribute to obesity development, genetics alone cannot explain the current epidemic. Obesity is essentially the consequence of complex genetic-environmental interactions. Evidence suggests that contemporary lifestyles trigger epigenetic changes, which can dysregulate energy balance and thus contribute to obesity. The hypothalamus plays a pivotal role in the regulation of body weight, through a sophisticated network of neuronal systems. Alterations in the activity of these neuronal pathways have been implicated in the pathophysiology of obesity. Here, we review the current knowledge on the central control of energy balance with a focus on recent studies linking epigenetic mechanisms in the hypothalamus to the development of obesity and metabolic disorders.

期刊介绍:
Cell Stress is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that is dedicated to publishing highly relevant research in the field of cellular pathology. The journal focuses on advancing our understanding of the molecular, mechanistic, phenotypic, and other critical aspects that underpin cellular dysfunction and disease. It specifically aims to foster cell biology research that is applicable to a range of significant human diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, myopathies, mitochondriopathies, infectious diseases, cancer, and pathological aging.
The scope of Cell Stress is broad, welcoming submissions that represent a spectrum of research from fundamental to translational and clinical studies. The journal is a valuable resource for scientists, educators, and policymakers worldwide, as well as for any individual with an interest in cellular pathology. It serves as a platform for the dissemination of research findings that are instrumental in the investigation, classification, diagnosis, and therapeutic management of major diseases. By being open-access, Cell Stress ensures that its content is freely available to a global audience, thereby promoting international scientific collaboration and accelerating the exchange of knowledge within the research community.
