Abstract
The objectives of this study were to compare the effects of two Persian Gulf marine algae, Padina pavonica (Pp) and Sargassum angustifolium (Sa), on both in vitro and in vivo models.
Hot water and Ethanolic extracts of Pp (HWE.Pp, EE.Pp) and Sa (HWE.Sa, EE.Sa) were added to human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADMSCs) cultures treated with adipogenic medium. An in vivo study was done by feeding the extracts to the high-fat diet (HFD) male Wistar rats.
A decrease in adipocyte differentiation, and an increase in leptin production and energy loss as indicated by UCP1 and UCP3 upregulation and intracellular glucose content were detected. Weight loss, food intake reduction, downregulation of the PPARγ, and upregulation of UCP1, UCP3, FNDC5, and leptin were observed in the animals were fed with both algae compared to untreated obese and normal rats. Both extracts with superiority of Sa also normalized the level of blood sugar, cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), as well as inflammatory factors and liver enzymes. HW-Sa was the best extract to normalize all the criteria.
Sa can be considered as a good remedy for losing weight by inhibiting adipocyte differentiation, and inflammation, increasing energy loss, and decreasing food intake through leptin elevation.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Obesity Research & Clinical Practice (ORCP) is to publish high quality clinical and basic research relating to the epidemiology, mechanism, complications and treatment of obesity and the complication of obesity. Studies relating to the Asia Oceania region are particularly welcome, given the increasing burden of obesity in Asia Pacific, compounded by specific regional population-based and genetic issues, and the devastating personal and economic consequences. The journal aims to expose health care practitioners, clinical researchers, basic scientists, epidemiologists, and public health officials in the region to all areas of obesity research and practice. In addition to original research the ORCP publishes reviews, patient reports, short communications, and letters to the editor (including comments on published papers). The proceedings and abstracts of the Annual Meeting of the Asia Oceania Association for the Study of Obesity is published as a supplement each year.
