Abstract:
Obesity is mostly recognized as a chronic inflammatory condition in which the balance of normal state is destroyed and it is a risk of cardiovascular disease and many other chronic metabolic disease.Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1),a major cytoprotective enzyme,exerts significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.It also can improve the function of fat cells and enhanced insulin sensitivity in obese individuals.The researches of HO-1 for the anti-inflammatory effects and its intervention have great significance in improving the inflammatory state and its related diseases in obesity.This paper elaborates the change of HO-1 and its effect for macrophage infiltration in obesity.
