Sargassum miyabei Yendo Brown Algae Exert Anti-Oxidative and Anti-AdipogenicEffects on 3T3-L1 Adipocytes by Downregulating PPAR?.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Background and objectives: Sargassum miyabei Yendo, belonging to the family Sargassaceae, has been reported to have various biological effects such as anti-tyrosinase activity and anti-inflammation. However, the anti-obesity effect of Sargassum miyabei Yendo has not yet been reported. Materials and Methods: The effects of Sargassum miyabei Yendo extract (SME) on 3T3-L1 adipocytes were screened by3-(4,5)-dimethylthiazo-2-yl-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), Oil red O staining, western blot, and Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analyses. Results: Here, we show that SME had potent 2,2'-azinobis-3-ehtlbezothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical decolorization (ABTS) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) antioxidant activity with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 0.2868 ± 0.011 mg/mL and 0.2941 ± 0.014 mg/mL, respectively. In addition, SME significantly suppressed lipid accumulation and differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, as shown by Oil Red O staining results. SME attenuated the expression of adipogenic- and lipogenic-related genes such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR?), CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBP?), CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein delta (C/EBP?), adiponectin, adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), fatty acid synthase (FAS), hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), and lipoprotein lipase (LPL). Conclusions: These findings suggest that SME may have therapeutic implications for developing a new anti-obesity agent.
