Metformin attenuates hypothalamic inflammation via downregulation of RIPK1-independent microglial necroptosis in diet-induced obese mice
Abstract Necroptosis, a form of programmed cell death, accounts for many inflammations in a wide range of diseases. Diet-induced obesity is manifested by low-grade inflammation in the mediobasal hypothalamus (MBH), and microglia are implicated as critical responsive components for this process. Here...
