科普專欄–薯不揀單 - 深入淺出–女性相對上易肥的原因

減肥是不少女性、又或者亦是男性的終身使命。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hn5pTfYRd
先天上，兩性在儲存脂肪及體脂分佈上均有非常不同的地方。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTDOjNAaQW

（圖1）已知的知識中，荷爾蒙及性別染色體在脂肪控制上均扮演著舉足輕重的角色。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG8BUv739K
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcrg1hy4XH
普遍來說，女性傾向把脂肪儲存在臀部，而更年期的女性及男性則傾向把脂肪儲存在肚部。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BqDuiHFhX
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ670fbycHI8
增加更年期女性的體內雌激素濃度的話，將能減低脂肪儲存在肚部的傾向，間接證明荷爾蒙對於體脂分佈的影響性。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ367G6GSrC6
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoazq6h98y4
然而，性別荷爾蒙在青春期發育的時候最為旺盛，但男女性的人體嬰兒及老鼠在發育之前，體脂的分佈亦已有所不同。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3pKRYjYch
而且，XXY的男性比XY的男性，體脂相對為多。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZxkIlYnHL
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPzBRS9pLF
這亦暗示性別染色體在脂肪控制上亦扮演著一定的角色。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUWcD5ts8W
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy449OfG2g
而近日就有科學家發表文章（Ref1)，解構X染色體導致脂肪相對上較容易增加的原因。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VRdiv5Bgf

（圖2）X染色體主宰超過800種蛋白質的產生。我們的身體有一道名為X inactivation的機制，使其中一條X染色體不能正常運作，好使蛋白質不會以雙倍的方式產生，造就男性及女性相關於X染色體所產生的蛋白質水平不會有太大的差異；980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEooiehj1s
男性只有一條X染色體，而X inactivation亦不會發生。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYh2DurJh9
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUSJW5bPi6
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02nE3fFY53
但有時候，有一些X chromosome區域並沒有被抑制下來，造就女性身上某些蛋白質的數量會比男性為高。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkl6m9D2m3
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rS1Px0JfD
而現今發現，有至少四種蛋白質普遍上並沒有被X inactivation機制抑制下來。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllhKnrrCcJ

（圖3）Kdm5c就是其中一隻沒有被抑制下來的蛋白質，它是一種histone deacetylase，簡單來說就是有著控制基因上那一些蛋白質能夠產生出來，那一些不能產生出來的權力。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGB4a1ToKJ
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW1rrF1dk0
科學家用上不同的實驗證實，Kdm5c有著控制幹細胞較容易變成為脂肪細胞的功能。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr047IHAKWr
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7VQXU83BH
在老鼠上，Kdm5c數量的多少，對於進食的數量並沒有太大的變化，但Kedm5c數量較多的老鼠身上則有著更多的脂肪。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeWM6BzWMj
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpn3fq9Rhm
而對比七百多名孖生女性體內Kdm5c數量及其BMI的話，亦能發現有著正比的關係。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wfga1Sdni
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TZGuIp7hf
女士先天上較易產生更多的脂肪，將有助懷孕的時候給予嬰兒更多的保護及營養需要。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNyb3mJbMy
而Kdm5c這蛋白質是否為此先天性上而設，暫時還沒有決定性的實驗能夠證實。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4s8QKnnAm
980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvNxhaJQ5E
至於能否利用基因技術或者藥物來抑制Kdm5c的數量或功效而達至減肥功效，暫時亦沒有任何的數據，而且Kdm5c顯然不只是局限於影響脂肪新陳代謝這一方面，隨意抑壓的話相當有機會會導致不良的副作用效果。980Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjPvH2N1EV
