Molecular factors involved in the hypolipidemic- and insulin-sensitizing effects of a ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) extract in rats fed a high-fat diet.
Hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic properties of ginger in animal models have been reported. However, information related to the mechanisms and factors involved in the metabolic effects of ginger at a hepatic level are limited. The aim of the present study was to investigate molecular factors involved in the hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects of a hydroethanolic ginger extract (GE) in the liver of rats fed a high-fat diet (HFD). The study was conducted in male Wistar rats divided into the following 3 groups: (i) Rats fed a standard diet (3.5% fat), the control group; (ii) rats fed an HFD (33.5% fat); and (iii) rats fed an HFD treated with GE (250 mg·kg Topics: Adiponectin; Animals; Catechols; Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2; Diet, High-Fat; Fatty Alcohols; Glucose Transporter Type 2; Hyperlipidemias; Hypoglycemic Agents; Hypolipidemic Agents; Insulin Resistance; Liver; Male; Overweight; Plant Extracts; Plant Roots; PPAR alpha; PPAR gamma; Rats, Wistar; Up-Regulation; Zingiber officinale | 2017 |
