Article Synopsis
- Obesity contributes to FGF21 resistance, impairing the ability of adipose tissue to regulate body heat and fat, primarily through increased levels of miR-34a.
- The study investigates the effects of Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn. extract (HSE) on miR-34a and FGF21 receptor expression in white adipose tissue using a rat model of diet-induced obesity.
- Results indicate that HSE can restore miR-34a and FGFR1 receptor levels to those similar to healthy controls, suggesting it has potential to combat FGF21 resistance in obesity.
