TLR4-interactor with leucine-rich repeats (TRIL) is involved in diet-induced hypothalamic inflammation

Abstract Obesity and high-fat diet (HFD) consumption result in hypothalamic inflammation and metabolic dysfunction. While the TLR4 activation by dietary fats is a well-characterized pathway involved in the neuronal and glial inflammation, the role of its accessory proteins in diet-induced hypothalam...
