The pandemic of the new severe acute respiratory syndrome virus (SARS-CoV-2) has been confirmed in morethan 330,000 people being responsible for more than 14,000 deaths worldwide (World Health Organization -official data of March 23, 2020). Current treatment for severe cases it is based on respiratory support, use of avariety of antibiotics with eventual extracorporeal oxygenation; howeve…
Obesity is characterized by an energy imbalance in favor of the accumulation of energy by white adispe tissue (WAT). The consumption of high-fat-diet (HFD) can overcome genetic obesity promoting factors. In addition to the WAT hypertrophy, obesity is associated with several comorbidities. The hypothalamus is the region of the brain responsible for the regulation of food intake by modulati…
Obesity has become a worldwide pandemic and is characterized by an energy imbalance in favor of the energy accumulation by white adipose tissue (WAT). Obesity is a risk factor for several diseases. The main role of WAT is to accumulate energy as fat, on the other hand, the brown adipose tissue (BAT) contributes to the energy expenditure by heat production. The activation of the thermogeni…
