Popis: | The chronic low-grade inflammation in adipose tissue plays a causal role in obesity-induced insulin resistance and its associated pathophysiological consequences. In this study, we investigated the effects of extracts of Broussonetia papyrifera root bark (PRE) and its bioactive components on inflammation and insulin sensitivity. PRE inhibited TNF-&alpha induced NF-&kappa B transcriptional activity in the NF-&kappa B luciferase assay and pro-inflammatory genes&rsquo expression by blocking phosphorylation of I&kappa B and NF-&kappa B in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, which were mediated by activating AMPK. Ten-week-high fat diet (HFD)-fed C57BL6 male mice treated with PRE had improved glucose intolerance and decreased inflammation in adipose tissue, as indicated by reductions in NF-&kappa B phosphorylation and pro-inflammatory genes&rsquo expression. Furthermore, PRE activated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and reduced lipogenic genes&rsquo expression in both adipose tissue and liver. Finally, we identified broussoflavonol B (BF) and kazinol J (KJ) as bioactive constituents to suppress pro-inflammatory responses via activating AMPK in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Taken together, these results indicate the therapeutic potential of PRE, especially BF or KJ, in metabolic diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. |
