Patent attributes
Provided are a method for promoting the lipolysis and fatty acid oxidative metabolism in mammals or cells derived from mammals, a method for downregulating the fat content and the weight of a mammalian body, as well as a method for increasing the intracellular cAMP concentration, increasing the phosphorylation degree and the activity of the hormone-sensitive esterase HSL, enhancing the transcription activity of PPAR alpha and increasing the activities of enzymes involved in a fatty acid beta oxidation process. By simulating the expression of a protein corresponding to a gene responsible for the phosphorylation of the Fas-associated death domain protein, or treating and acting on mammals or cells derived from mammals with a material that can increase the phosphorylation degree of the Fas-associated death domain protein, said methods increases the phosphorylation of the Fas-associated death domain protein.
