Xanthohumol improves dysfunctional glucose and lipid metabolism in diet-induced obese C57BL/6J mice.
Miranda CL, Elias VD, Hay JJ, Choi J, Reed RL, Stevens JF. Miranda CL, et al. Arch Biochem Biophys. 2016 Jun 1;599:22-30. doi: 10.1016/j.abb.2016.03.008. Epub 2016 Mar 11. Arch Biochem Biophys. 2016. PMID: 26976708 Free PMC article.
Plasma levels of glucose, total triglycerides, total cholesterol, and MCP-1 were significantly decreased in mice on the 60 mg/kg/day treatment regimen. Treatment with XN at 60 mg/kg/day resulted in reduced plasma LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C), IL-6, insulin and leptin lev …
