ABSTRACT: Background
Rosa canina L. (rosehip) is used worldwide in traditional medicine as a plant with medicinal properties. However, its anti-obesity effects are not fully explained on a transcriptional level.Methods
In the present work, the 3T3-L preadipocytes were utilized to explore the impact of R. canina fruit extract (RCE) on the cellular and molecular pathways involved in adipocyte hypertrophy.Results
Obtained results showed the ability of RCE to reduce lipid overloads in hypertrophic adipocytes associated with the down-regulation of mRNA expressions of adipogenic transcription factors such as PPARγ, C/EBPα, and SREBP-1c as well as genes involved in lipid biosyntheses such as FAS, LPL, and aP2. Moreover, obesity-associ
