Adipose Tissue-Specialized Immunologic Features Might Be the Potential Therapeutic Target of Prospective Medicines for Obesity

The Notch signaling pathways are shown mainly above. The Notch receptor on the cell membrane combines with a DII4 ligand and induces the translocation of NICD from cytoplasm into cell nucleus, binding with RNP-J. Likewise, TLR4 could play a role in Notch signaling pathway to regulate IRAK2, eif4E, and NF-κB, activating the RBP-J signal. However, SOCS3 inhibits one key protein IRAK2 among the signals above.
