Researchers from Kyoto University and other universities in Japan released research results on August 8, saying that they locked down the protein related to obesity through experimental mice, and inhibited its function to achieve the effect of not being prone to obesity The protein, called neudesin, is seen as a key factor in inducing obesity and is also present in the body Through gene manipulation, the researchers fed the same high-fat food to both the experimental mice and the normal mice that could not generate neudesin After about 3 months, the weight of the two groups of mice reached about 30 g and 40 g respectively The researchers concluded that neudesin was associated with obesity They analyzed that neudesin inhibited the sympathetic nerves that promote fat breakdown, thereby reducing energy consumption As a result, mice with the protein build up fat and gain weight "This [research result] will help to develop new anti obesity drugs," said taeda Ku, a researcher at Kobe Pharmaceutical University Liu Xi, Xinhua News Agency
