Researchers identified the mechanisms in which neuro-immune processes trigger brain signals to instruct immune functions in visceral fat stores. The findings could pave the way for new treatments for obesity.
Visceral fat impairs memory via proinflammatory interleukin-1 beta mediated microglia activation in the hippocampus.
Study reports type 2 diabetes and other obesity related health disorders depend on how the body stores excess fat. Researchers report visceral adipose tissue may be a cause of pathogenic obesity.
