Abstract:Obesity is closely related to several metabolic diseases along with abnormal increase in fat cells. Reducing size and number of fat cells, a procedure known as lipolysis, may be used to prevent obesity as a potential therapy, which also requires fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of lipolysis at molecular level upon different types of stimulations. Here, we used low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) stimulation to investigate underlying mechanisms of the activation of lipolysis and autophagy related… Show more
