  Olanzapine, a widely used antipsychotic, causes significant iatrogenic side effects of obese leading to non-compliance of antipsychotics in schizophrenia patients. However, the mechanism of olanzapine creating obese of metabolic disorders has remained elusive till now. Adipocyte proliferation was believed as general reasons for obesity-related diseases, convinced from our olanzapine-induced obese rat model. Our results demonstrated adipocyte proliferation through significantly elevating P-PI3K and P-AKT cascades in chronic treatment of olanzapine. Interestingly, significant activations of apoptosis through Klotho-Egr-1-MnSOD pathway were also observed in the obese rat model. We hypothesized that the activation of the apoptotic pathway could elicit a feedback response in adipocyte proliferation after olanzapine chronic treatments. Our results demonstrated that olan..
