Dissecting The Brain Basis Of Obesity-Induced Pubertal Alterations: A View To A Kiss
Can Obesity Affect Puberty?Accumulating Evidence Suggests That Obesity Is Linked To Disturbed Puberty. Obesity Is Largely A Hypothalamic Disease, While Neuronal Networks In The Hypothalamus Also Regulate Puberty. Funded By The European Research Council, The Dopa-Kiss Project Aims To Uncover The Impact Of Obesity On Puberty By Integrating Omics Data And Studying Metabolic Sensing In Kiss1 Neurons In The Hypothalamus. Project Objectives Include The Investigation Of The Metabolic Control Of Puberty Alongside The Identification Of Pathophysiological Processes Related To Obesity. Given The High Prevalence Of Obesity In Adolescence, Project Findings Will Pave The Way For Novel Interventions Against Obesity-Induced Puberty Changes.
