One drug is anti-obesity, pain and depression





erman scientists have discovered a promising anti-obesity, depression and chronic pain that scientists are working on to treat.
Scientists from Germany point out that protein in the human body plays an important role not only in energy exchange but also in the development of depression and chronic pain.

Researchers at the Darmstadt Technological University found that blocking FKBP51 inhibits the tendency to depression, obesity and chronic pain.

Currently, Tacrolimus, obtained with the help of bacteria and similar proteins, FKBP51, is the basis of all drugs and drugs currently used to treat these diseases.

Scientists have changed the substance to block only the FKBP51 protein, and are currently working on two versions of the drug: the first can overcome the blood barrier in the brain, specialized for the treatment of depression and chronic pain. The second will be to combat obesity.

The products were tested only on laboratory animals and will soon begin clinical testing, according to Natural Communications.
