41. Evidence that Corylin induces the formation of beige adipocytes in mouse
EWAT and BAT activation by increasing the expression of genes specific to
brown adipocytes and stimulating fatty acid oxidation
3.Results contd…
Primarily mediated by SIRT1 and β3-AR.
These data demonstrate that, in addition to reducing body weight and lipid
accumulation and stimulating lipolysis, a novel browning role of Corylin in
EWAT exists,
40
42. 4.Discussion
Corylin may protect against obesity progression by inducing browning and
lipolysis in WAT and thermogenesis in BAT through SIRT1 and β3-AR
regulation.
Corylin reduced obesity, enhanced the metabolic rate and improved
insulin resistance.
Results showed that Corylin increases the mRNA expression of brown
adipocyte-selective genes, such as ucp1, prdm16, and pgc1α, in EWAT,
BAT and 3T3L1 adipocytes.
41
43. Expression levels of beige adipocyte-selective markers such as in the
Corylin-treated EWAT or 3T3L1 adipocytes were much higher than those in
the HFD, DIO or MDI-treated group.
Activation of adrenergic signaling via β3-AR increases lipolysis in WAT,
and the mobilization of free fatty acids by lipolysis is essentially required for
thermogenesis in BAT & Beige.
The mRNA expression of mitochondrial biogenesis-related genes and
β-oxidation-related genes was also markedly elevated by Corylin treatment
4.Discussion contd…
42
44. • We found that Corylin could not improve obesity in ob/ob mice
• Corylin could not improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity
• one is that Corylin is probably a leptin sensitizer; and other, the
present studies showed that Corylin induced WAT browning
probably through activation of β3- AR in MDI-treated 3T3L1 cells the
activation of WAT browning by Corylin cannot lead to the browning
function in ob/ob mice
Limitations
43
45. Future aspects
• Develop formulation
• Conduct more studies in humans
• Needs more disease models
• Psoralea coryliforia is used in the traditional drugs
• It grows throughout the plains of India, especially in the semi-arid regions of
Rajasthan and Punjab, adjoining Uttar Pradesh.
• It is also found throughout India in Himalayas, Dehra Dun, Oudh,
Bundelkhand, Bengal, Bombay, some valley in Bihar, Deccan, and
Karnataka 44

HOMA-IR is a calculation that indicates your level of insulin sensitivity by taking into account the relationship between glucose and insulin.
PRDM16 acts as a transcription coregulator that controls the development of brown adipocytes in brown adipose tissue
Previously, this coregulator was believed to be present only in brown adipose tissue, but more recent studies have shown that PRDM16 is highly expressed in subcutaneous white adipose tissue
Next, we examined the
role of SIRT1 and β3-AR in the effects of corylin treatment on browning and lipolysis.
The increased expression of Ucp1, Pgc1a, and lipolysis-related gene expression (Atgl, Hsl and Mgl) in corylin-treated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes was markedly inhibited by Ex527 (a SIRT1 antagonist) or L-748,337 (a β3-AR antagonist) treatment
which contributes to the
beneficial effects of corylin in metabolism
These data strongly support the notion that corylin treatment might promote existed brown-like adipocyte thermogenesis and beige adipocyte differentiation.
The mRNA expression of mitochondrial biogenesis-related genes (Cytc) and β-oxidation-related genes (Cpt1b and Acox1) was also markedly elevated by Corylin treatment
Expression levels of beige adipocyte-selective markers such as Tbx1, Cited1 or Hoxc9 in the Corylin-treated EWAT or 3T3L1 adipocytes were much higher than those in the HFD, DIO or MDI-treated group
SIRT1 plays a key role in thermogenesis and is a master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis and thermogenesis in adipose tissue by deacetylation of PPARγ , increasing PGC1α promoter activity and then driving UCP1 transcription
