Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesObesity Reviews, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.
