Researchers found that a water extract of L. fruit effectively reduced leptin resistance in high-fat diet fed rats by improving gut barrier function, appetite regulation, and lipid metabolism. This may help in managing obesity and related complications.
Scientists isolated and tested anti-obesity fractions from leaves. Fraction F2 showed the most potential, reducing body weight and lipids in obese mice. It contains compounds with binding capability for proteins, suggesting a therapeutic strategy for obesity.
Flower extracts were used to synthesize copper nanoparticles with potential applications in stabilizing compounds, antimicrobial activity, and anti-obesity/anti-diabetic effects. This study demonstrates the versatility and benefits of using plant-synthesized nanoparticles in various fields.
Moringa leaf added to tea, improves polyphenol content, flavor. MFP inhibits fat accumulation, improves metabolic health in mice. Promising functional food for obesity prevention.
"Oregano seed extract reduces fatty liver in obese mice by regulating lipid metabolism genes. Shows potential for treating obesity and liver disease. Important for understanding natural remedies for metabolic disorders."
Celastrol from Tripterygium wilfordii roots reduces airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness in obese asthma by balancing M1/M2 alveolar macrophage polarization, possibly through the PI3K/AKT pathway. This could lead to new therapeutic options for obese asthma.
Madecassoside from Centella asiatica has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in disease models. Its effects on white adipocytes and gene knockdown mechanisms need further study.
