Experts from the University of California, San Diego, USA, have investigated the main cause of obesity.
Publika.az reports that the researchers discovered that this entire process is controlled by a single cell.
In their research on mice, they found that a cell has the ability to burn energy. The team found that when rodents were fed a high-fat diet, their cells broke down and became less effective at burning fat.
Experts say that eating too many calories leads to weight gain, as well as reduces energy consumption and accelerates obesity. As a result of the death of that cell, a rapid transition from normal weight to obesity occurs.
When people consume more calories than they burn, fat cells lose their ability to burn energy. This is one of the reasons why it is difficult for overweight people to lose weight.
A direct comparison between the basic biology discovered and actual clinical results proves the findings are relevant to humans and suggests we can help prevent obesity with new treatments, said the expert.
