Adipocyte‐specific IGF1R knockout activates the β‐catenin/apelin axis to combat diet‐induced obesity in male mice

Obesity, driven by complex genetic and environmental interactions, remains a global health crisis with limited therapeutic options. The insulin‐like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) plays dual roles in metabolism and growth, but its tissue‐specific functions in adipose biology are controversial. This study investigates how adipose‐specific IGF1R knockout impacts systemic metabolism under high‐fat diet (HFD) stress and explores the underlying mechanisms.
