Scientists say they have found a way to turn body fat into a better type of fat that burns off calories and weight The US Johns Hopkins team made the【C1】________in rats but believe the same could be done in humans, offering the hope of a new way to treat obesity.
【C2】________the expression of a protein linked to【C3】________not only reduced the animals’ calorie intake and weight but also【C4】________their fat composition.
Brown fat is【C5】________in babies, which they use as a【C6】________source to generate body heat,【C7】________calories at the same time. But as we age our brown fat largely【C8】________and gets replaced by "bad" white fat, which【C9】________sits as a spare tyre around the waist.
"We will need a lot more work to tease this out, but it could offer a(n)【C10】________way to develop new treatments for obesity", an expert said.
Experts have【C11】________that stimulating the body to make more brown fat【C12】________white fat could be a helpful way to control weight and【C13】________obesity and its related health problems. Various teams have been searching for a way to do this, and Dr Sheng Bi and colleagues at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine believe they may have cracked it. They designed an experiment to see【C14】________suppressing an appetite-stimulating protein called NPY would decrease body weight in rats. When they silenced NPY in the brains of the rats they found their appetite and food【C15】________decreased. Even when the rats were fed a very【C16】________, high-fat diet they still managed to keep more weight【C17】________than rats who had fully functioning NPY. The scientists then checked the fat【C18】________of the rats and found an interesting change had occurred. In the rats with silenced NPY expression, some of the bad white fat had been replaced with good brown fat.
The researchers are【C19】________that it may be possible to achieve the same effect in people by injecting brown fat stem cells【C20】________the skin to burn white fat and stimulate weight loss.
【C9】
选项
A、approximately
B、extremely
C、typteally
D、absolutely
答案
C
解析
根据常识我们可得知,随着年龄的增长,多余的脂肪常常会囤积于腰部,故答案为C项typically“典型地,通常”。A项approximately“近似;大约地”,后面常接数字,表估计。B项extremely“极度地”,表示程度,其后面通常接形容词。D项absolutely“绝对地”,代入句中不合理,白色脂肪主要囤积于腰部,但其他部位也可能有白色脂肪。
