[ 1 ] - In-vitro Synergistic Effect of Metformin and Berberine on High Glucose-induced Lipogenesis

Metformin and berberine have been reported to have lipid lowering effects. This study aims to investigate lipid lowering effects of berberine and metformin, alone and in combination, in HepG2 cells to determine whether berberine and metformin work synergistically and elucidate their mechanisms. HepG2 cells were treated with 33 mM glucose in the presence of various concentrations of berberine an...

[ 3 ] - Resveratrol reduces lipid accumulation through upregulating the expression of microRNAs regulating fatty acid bet oxidation in liver cells: Evidence from in vivo and in vitro studies

MicroRNAs has been shown to regulate lipogenesis in liver. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the effects of resveratrol (RSV) on lipogenesis is associated with the changes in the expression of two miRNAs (miR-107 and miR-10b) that regulate lipogenic pathways. 30 wild type C57BL/6j male mice were randomly fed three diets: a standard chow diet (ND), a high fat diet (HFD, 60%...
