Anti-obesity and hypolipidemic effects of Rheum undulatum in high-fat diet-fed C57BL/6 mice through protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibition

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is important in the regulationof metabolic diseases and has emerged as a promising signalingtarget. Previously, we reported the PTP1B inhibitory activityof Rheum undulatum (RU). In the present study, we investigatedthe metabolic regulatory effects of RU in a h...
