Anti-Adipogenic Effects of Ethanol Extracts Prepared from Selected Medicinal Herbs in 3T3-L1 Cells.

Obesity is a major risk factor for various metabolic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. In this study, we prepared ethanol extracts from (ARE), (CZE), (MAE), (PFE), (LSE), (GJE), and (LCE). The anti-oxidant and anti-adipogenic effects were evaluated.

Antioxidant and anti-adipogenic activities of acorn shells.

Antioxidant and anti-adipogenic activities of water extract (WE) and methanol extract (ME) of acorn shells (AS), from Carruth. grown in Korea, were investigated. At a concentration of 50 μg/mL, the WE had a scavenging activity of 53.

Antioxidant and anti-adipogenic activities of chestnut () byproducts.

The antioxidant and anti-adipogenic activities of chestnut byproducts were evaluated. At 100 μg/mL, the methanol extract (ME) scavenged 34.2% of DPPH and 78.

Anti-oxidant and anti-adipogenic effects of acorn ( CARR.) shell extracts via regulation of wnt signaling in 3T3-L1 cells.

Acorn ( CARR.) is a nut from the Fagaceae family that has been used in traditional medicine for many years. However, shells from acorns are regarded as a by-product and are mostly discarded.

Beneficial role and function of fisetin in skin health via regulation of the CCN2/TGF-β signaling pathway.

Skin is composed of multiple layers, including the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. Although several biological activities of fisetin have been reported, beneficial effects and the functions of fisetin in skin remain unclear. B16F10 melanoma cells, human skin fibroblasts, and 3T3-L1 cells were used to examine the beneficial effects of fisetin in skin health.

Anti-aging Potential of Extracts Prepared from Fruits and Medicinal Herbs Cultivated in the Gyeongnam Area of Korea.

Many recent studies have focused on maintaining a healthy life by preventing and/or postponing the aging process. Numerous studies have reported that continuous exposure to reactive oxygen species can stimulate skin aging and that excessive accumulation of fat can cause an impaired skin barrier and tissue structure alterations. Thus, the maintenance of antioxidant homeostasis and the suppression of adipose accumulation are important strategies for skin anti-aging.
