Increase of Hormone‐sensitive Lipase Activity by Subfaction of Green Pepper Water Extracts in 3T3‐L1 Cells

Abstract

It has been well elucidated that excessive body weight could related to various diseases, for example cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus.. We have investigated water extract of green pepper stimulating hormene‐sensitive lipase activity in adipose tissue. In order to find effective compound from green pepper, we subfractionated water extract of green pepper by using columns packed with sephadex LH20 and MCI CHP‐20. Subfractions were checked by UPLC and hormene‐sensitive lipase activity was also investigated.
