This project investigates the relationship between circadian rhythms and lipid metabolism to understand how environmental factors contribute to obesity. Using zebrafish as a model, it aims to explore how disruptions in biological clocks affect fat processing and the impact of harmful chemicals on these processes.
Bringing light to obesity will elucidate the interconnecting steps of two important signaling pathways i.e. circadian signaling and lipid metabolism.
An increase in serum cholesterol level in shift workers indicates this link.
Also obesogenic chemicals might influence lipid metabolism through changes in circadian rhythm.Research on obesity has gained in importance as the number of affected patients increases world-wide.
