Capsaicin And Genistein Override The Action Of Obestatin To Decrease Lipid Accumulation In 3T3-L1 Cells.

Satiety peptides convey information about short-term energy reserves in the gut to the hypothalamus and aid in regulation of appetite and food intake. Obestatin is one such gastro peptide that has been shown to upregulate glycerolipid metabolism and PPARγ signalling. Obestatin brings about moderate reduction in circulating and stored triglyceride levels and reduction in gain in body weight in mice.
