Genetic Ablation of TNF‐α Attenuates High Fat Diet‐induced Obesity Potentially via Diminishing Wnt‐signaling and Determinant Genes of Adipogenesis

Abstract: Recent decades have seen a rapid increase in obesity, which is associated with increased risk of multiple medical complications including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. As obesity has reached an epidemic level and no decrease is projected in the near future, new prevention and medication strategies are needed for obesity and related disorders.
