Abstract:Obesity is an important manifestation of the imbalance of energy regulation, and its complications can cause irreparable damage to the body. Finding the pathogenesis of obesity at the molecular level can help fundamentally avoid these irreversible complications. Extended synaptotagmins (E-Syts) are proteins related to the formation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and plasma membrane (PM). Because of the short discovery time, there is huge room for exploration. In terms of the role of the established structure of E- Syts at the molecular level, it has a non-negligible link with the pathogenesis of obesity. Starting with the structure of hypothalamus, this paper reviews the literature evidence of this connection, hoping to find a new research angle for reducing the incidence of obesity.
