Juniper Berries Regulate Diabetes and Obesity Markers Through Modulating PPARα, PPARγ, and LXR: In Vitro and In Vivo Effects.

The methanolic extract of berries (JB) activates PPAR, PPAR, and LXR, inhibits adipogenesis, increases glucose uptake, and decreases body weight in mice. JB has potential for treating metabolic disorders and type 2 diabetes.
