| Research Abstract |
Obesity is a condition of well-developed adipose tissue, and cause functional abnormality of energy metabolism. In order to maintain the homeostasis of body weight, the brain takes the central role in transfer of energy information. Although diabetes or obesity serves as a risk-factor of the brain disease onset of Alzheimer' s disease etc, it remains unknown the mechanisms of brain injury in obesity. Therefore, we estimated brain function in high fat dietinduced obese mouse.
