The impact of diet-induced maternal obesity on offspring airway hyperresponsiveness was studied in a diversity outbred mouse model that mirrors human genetic diversity. Female mice were started on high-fat or regular diet 8 weeks before breeding and throughout pregnancy and lactation. After weaning, all offspring were fed a regular diet.

Obesity is associated with a series of skeletal muscle impairments and dysfunctions, which are characterized by metabolic disturbances and muscle atrophy. Luteolin is a phenolic phytochemical with broad pharmacological activities. The present study aimed to evaluate the protective effects of Luteolin on muscle function and explore the potential mechanisms in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese rats and palmitic acid (PA)-treated C2C12 myotubes.

Natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C) is highly expressed in adipose tissues and regulates obesity-related diseases; however, the detailed mechanism remains unknown. In this research, we aimed to explore the potential role of NPR-C in cold exposure and high-fat/high-sugar (HF/HS) diet-induced metabolic changes, especially in regulating white adipose tissue (WAT) mitochondrial function. Our findings showed that NPR-C expression, especially in epididymal WAT (eWAT), was reduced after cold exposure.

Obesity is a risk factor for increased morbidity and mortality in viral respiratory infection. Mucociliary clearance (MCC) in the airway is the primary host defense against viral infections. However, the impact of obesity on MCC is unclear, prompting this study.
