Raphanus sativus L. var. caudatus Extract Alleviates Impairment of Lipid and Glucose Homeostasis in Liver of High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity and Insulin Resistance in Mice.

The study found that administering L. var. extract reduced abnormal lipid and glucose levels in obese mice, improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing liver cholesterol and triglyceride levels. This is potentially due to activation of the AMPK/Sirt1 pathway.

Lactobacillus paracasei HP7 with Portulaca oleracea Linn. Alleviates Scopolamine-Induced Cognitive Decline via Regulation of Neurotrophic Factor and Inflammation Signals in Mice.

A study found that a combination of HP7 and Linn. herbs (HP7A) had the best effect on increasing BDNF expression and suppressing Aβ40 expression, which can help with cognitive deterioration. Mice were given scopolamine to induce cognitive decline, and the HP7A group had the best performance in the acquisition test and the shortest escape latency in the probe test on day 6. The study suggests that HP7A can help ameliorate cognitive decline by increasing BDNF expression and suppressing Aβ40 expression.
