Obesity is characterized by an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure that triggers abnormal growth of adipose tissues. Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) its primary active metabolite, monomethyl (MMF), are Nrf2 activators have been recognized as strategic antioxidants. This study aimed to evaluate the potential MMF DMF interfere with adipogenesis obesity, identify molecular mechanisms involved. The 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were incubated differentiation medium (MIX) simultaneously treated different concentrations MMF. In addition, male C57BL/6 mice fed a standard diet or high-fat/high-sucrose (HFHSD) for 16 weeks, during last 4 which, they received oral treatment. Exposure prevented development MIX-induced reducing expression transcription factors drive adipocyte decreasing triglyceride levels. various antioxidant anti-inflammatory effects observed after treatment evidenced modulation factor activities reduction in reactive oxygen species, adipokine, proinflammatory cytokine resistin vivo reduced calorie intake, body weight, visceral subcutaneous fat mass HFHSD mice. Furthermore, administration led better glycemic response well lower leptin adiponectin plasma levels these animals. Our data demonstrate metabolite prevent key features diet-induced obesity. Considering already commercial drug used treat psoriasis multiple sclerosis, pharmacological application obesity related metabolic disorders holds promise.

Abstract Background The epidemic of metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease linked to excessive high‐fat diet (HFD) consumption has sparked widespread public concern. Nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related 2 (NRF2) been reported improve glucose/lipid metabolism, lipid degeneration and alleviate HFD‐induced inflammation. However, its pathways mechanisms action are not fully understood. Methods To confirm the effect NRF2 on metabolism in liver, Nrf2‐/‐ mice as well liver‐specific Nrf2 knockout mice, AAV‐TBG‐Nrf2 were employed. hyperinsulinemic‐euglycemic clamp was utilized determine glucose metabolism. elucidate pyroptosis, we performed western blots, immunofluorescence, quantitative real‐time PCR, Flow cytometry experiments. Finally, chromatin immunoprecipitation‐seq dual‐luciferase reporter assay used underscore transcriptional regulatory Gsdmd. Results We found that overexpression inhibited expression inflammatory cytokines pyroptosis markers, including cle‐Caspase1, NLRP3 N‐terminus gasdermin D (N‐GSDMD) both vivo vitro, while deficiency opposite. Specifically, with up‐regulated, GSDMD decreased Gsdmd partially reversed pro‐inflammatory phenotype. Mechanistically, demonstrate binds promoter at −2110 ‐ 1130 bp site, inhibiting thereby improving steatosis. Conclusion Our data indicate is an effective inhibitor a multi‐target treatment obesity‐related diseases. Key points MAFLD associated increased hepatocytes expression. alleviates by suppressing pyroptosis. directly inhibits regulate Targeting NRF2–pyroptosis (GSDMD) axis offers potential therapeutic strategy for MAFLD.
