We isolated isobavachalcone (IBC) from Angelica keiskei (AK) as an anti-obesity component. IBC dose-dependently inhibited 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation by down-regulating adipogenic factors. At the mitotic clonal expansion stage (MCE), IBC caused cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 with decreased
Pancreatic lipase (PL), a crucial enzyme in the digestive system of mammals, has been proven as a therapeutic target to prevent and treat obesity. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and characterize the PL inhibition activities of the major constituents from Fructus Psoraleae (FP), one of the
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a major negative regulator in insulin- and leptin-signaling cascades as well as a positive regulator in tumorigenesis, and much attention has been paid to PTP1B inhibitors as potential therapies for diabetes, obesity, and cancer. In the present study, the
During the aging process, senescent cells gradually accumulate in the organs; they secrete proinflammatory cytokines and other factors, collectively known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP secretions contribute to "inflammaging," which is a state of chronic, systemic,
OBJECTIVE
In developed countries with westernized diets, the excessive consumption of added sugar in beverages and highly refined and processed foods is associated with increased risk for obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. As a major constituent of added sugars, fructose has been shown
