The way in which fat is broken down is poorly understood. This research will determine how important proteins in fat breakdown are turned on and off. By understanding this relationship, effective pharmaceutical treatments will be developed that will enhance the capacity to burn fat and ultimately reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and ease the associated financial burden on the community and healthcare system. Understanding fat breakdown is also important for developing new processing technologies in the food industry.

人们对脂肪分解的方式知之甚少。这项研究将确定脂肪分解过程中蛋白质的开启和关闭有多重要。通过了解这种关系，将开发出有效的药物治疗方法，增强燃烧脂肪的能力，最终减少2型糖尿病和心血管疾病的发病率，并减轻社区和医疗保健系统的相关经济负担。了解脂肪分解对于开发食品工业中的新加工技术也很重要。
