Abstract

Obesity is an exceedingly prevalent and frequent health issue in today's society. Fat deposition is accompanied by low-grade inflammation in fat tissue and throughout the body, leading to metabolic disorders that ultimately promote the onset of obesity-related diseases. The development of obesity is accompanied by cell death events such as apoptosis as well as pyroptosis, however, the role of necroptosis in obesity has been widely reported in recent years. Necroptosis, a mode of cell death distinct from apoptosis and necrosis, is associated with developing many inflammatory conditions and their associated diseases. It also exhibits modulation of apoptosis and pyroptosis. It is morphologically similar to necroptosis, characterized by the inhibition of caspase-8, the formation of membrane pores, and the subsequent rupture of the plasma membrane. This paper focuses on the key pathways and molecules of necroptosis, exploring its connections with apoptosis and pyroptosis, and its implications in obesity. This paper posits that the modulation of necroptosis-related targets may represent a novel potential therapeutic avenue for the prevention and treatment of obesity-induced systemic inflammatory responses, and provides a synopsis of potential molecular targets that may prove beneficial in obesity-associated inflammatory diseases.
