Ankaflavin regulates adipocyte function and attenuates hyperglycemia caused by high-fat diet via PPAR-γ activation
The effects of ankaflavin (AK) on adipokines level and insulin sensitivity were investigated. Mice were fed with high-fat diet (HFD) and AK to evaluate hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. Additionally, mature differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were treated with AK or monascin (MS) to determine insulin s...
