OBJECTIVE
To investigate the weight-reducing effect of Acer truncatum leave extract on alimentary obesity rats and its effect on fatty acid synthase (FAS).
METHODS
SPF-grade adult male Wistar rats were fed with high-fat diet and Acer truncatum leave extract (10, 30 and 100 mg/kg BW) was given by
In order to study the anti-obesity ability and inhibition towards fatty acid synthase (FAS) of the extract, a 70% ethanol extract of Acer truncatum Bunge (AT) leaves was further extracted with ethyl acetate. FAS is a very significant lipogenic enzyme, participating in energy metabolism in vivo; it
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers, c9, t11-CLA and t10, c12-CLA, have been proved to exhibit excellent biomedical properties for potential use in anti-cancer applications and in reducing obesity. Acer truncatum Bunge (ATB), which is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, including oleic acid,
