AMPK
AMP-activated protein kinase
AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) is an enzyme that plays a role in cellular energy homeostasis. It consists of three proteins (subunits) that together make a functional enzyme. The net effect of AMPK activation is stimulation of hepatic fatty acid oxidation andketogenesis, inhibition of cholesterol synthesis, lipogenesis, and triglyceride synthesis, inhibition of adipocyte lipolysis and lipogenesis, stimulation of skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation and muscle glucose uptake by pancreatic beta-cells. AMPK acts as a metabolic master switch regulating several intracellular systems including the cellular uptake of glucose, the β-oxidation of fatty acids and the biogenesis of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) and mitochondria.

Calenduloside E
0 ImagesCalenduloside E is a pentacyclic triterpenoid saponin that can be extracted from the bark and roots of Aralia ovata, and has anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic activities. Calenduloside E alleviates atherosclerosis by regulating macrophage polarization, improves mitochondrial function by regulating the AMPK-SIRT3 pathway, and alleviates acute liver injury. In addition, Calenduloside E promotes the interaction between L-type calcium channels and Bcl-2 related apoptosis genes, inhibits calcium overload, and alleviates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Calenduloside E also improves non-alcoholic fatty liver disease by regulating heat shock-dependent pathways, and inhibits ROS mediated JAK1-STAT3 pathways to reduce cellular inflammatory responses.

Rubrofusarin gentiobioside
0 ImagesSynonyms: Rubrofusarin-6-β-gentiobiosideRubrofusarin gentiobioside (Rrubrofusarin-6-β-gentiobioside) is an orally active weak inhibitor of PTP1B and MAO-A (IC50 >100 μM), and its glycosylation modification results in lower biological activity than its aglycone Rubrofusarin (HY-130307). Rubrofusarin gentiobioside promotes AMPK phosphorylation in an LKB1-independent manner and inhibits the mTOR signaling pathway, thereby downregulating the expressions of PPARγ, C/EBPα, as well as FAS, LPL and aP2. Rubrofusarin gentiobioside inhibits lipid accumulation, reduces body weight and epididymal white adipose tissue volume, improves fatty liver, and shows no cytotoxicity to hepatocytes. Rubrofusarin gentiobioside is widely used in obesity-related studies.
