ABSTRACT
The present study investigated the activities of Raphanus sativus L. var. caudatus extract (RS) on abnormal lipid and glucose homeostasis in a high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity and insulin resistance in a mouse model. Institute of Cancer Research mice were rendered obese by 16-week HFD feeding. Obese mice were administered with 100 or 200 mg/kg/d RS orally during the last 8 weeks of diet feeding. Then, the biochemical parameters were determined. The gene and protein expressions regulating lipid and glucose homeostasis in the liver were measured. This study revealed that the state of hyperglycemia, hyperleptinemia, hyperinsulinemia, and hyperlipidemia was reduced after 8 weeks of RS treatment (100 or 200 mg/kg). Administration of RS also improved insulin sensitivity and increased serum adiponectin. The liver total cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations were decreased by both doses of RS. Notably, a decrease in the expression of liver-specific genes, including sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1c, fatty acid synthase, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase, was found in the RS-treated groups. Moreover, administration of RS showed a significant increase in the expression of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation and sirtuin1 (Sirt1) proteins. These findings indicated that RS improved abnormal lipid and glucose homeostasis in the liver of obesity-associated insulin resistance mouse model, possibly through the stimulation of the AMPK/Sirt1 pathway.
