A research team in Korea has developed a new drug that prevents people from gaining weight even when they consume nutrients.
On the 1st, a research team at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) under the Ministry of Science and ICT announced that they found that it was possible to lose weight without adjusting the amount of food by administering the new drug ‘KDS2010’. This is known to be possible through the principle of fat metabolism control found in ‘astrocytic cells’, which are non-neuronal cells in the brain.
This is because when the ‘Gabra 5’ nerve cells that produce inhibitory neurotransmitters are activated in the hypothalamus of the brain, which controls energy balance and hunger in the body, heat generation in adipose tissue increases and weight decreases. Regarding this, the IBS research team said, “This study revealed that the cause of obesity is in the brain, not fat cells and surrounding tissues.
