A high-fat diet (FD)-induced obesity mouse model was subjected to intermittent hypoxia/normoxia events for approximately 8 h per day using an autophagy agonist, rapamycin, or an inhibitor, 3-methyladenine (3-MA), and SRT1720, a sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) activator, or sirtinol, a SIRT1 inhibitor, with or without melatonin for a total of six successive weeks, followed by assessment of expression of autophagy-related genes and activity of serum aminotransferase as well as histological evaluation of tissue morphology. Here, SIRT1 is linked to Obesity.
