but its mechanism has not been clarified yet. A large number of researches have been conducted on the obesity mechanism in the aspects of neurophysiological regulation

feeding center regulation and peripheral digestion and absorption regulation at home and abroad. But

in view of the promotion of WAT browning through the re-gulation of UCP1 and PPARγ signal pathway with acupuncture

the potential peripheral mechanism of acupuncture was explored on weight loss.
