Calebin-A prevents HFD-induced obesity in mice by promoting thermogenesis and modulating gut microbiota
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Obesity is one of the complications of sedentary lifestyle and high-calorie food intake which become a global problem. Thermogenesis is a novel way to promote anti-obesity by consuming energy as heat rather than storing it as triacylglycerols. Over the last decade, growing eviden...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND AND AIM: Obesity is one of the complications of sedentary lifestyle and high-calorie food intake which become a global problem. Thermogenesis is a novel way to promote anti-obesity by consuming energy as heat rather than storing it as triacylglycerols. Over the last decade, growing evidence has identified the gut microbiota as a potential factor in the pathophysiology of obesity. Calebin A is a non-curcuminoid novel compound derived from the rhizome of medicinal turmeric with putative anti-obesity effects. However, its ability on promoting thermogenesis and modulating gut microbiota remain unclear. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE: C57BL/6J mice were fed either normal diet or high-fat diet (HFD) supplement with calebin A (0.1 and 0.5%) diet for 12 weeks. The composition of the gut microbiota was assessed by analyzing 16S rRNA gene sequences. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Mice treated with calebin A shows a remarkable alteration in microbiota composition compared with that of normal diet-fed or HFD-fed mice and is characterized by an enrichment of Akkermansia, Butyricicoccus, Ruminiclostridium_9, and unidentified_Ruminococcaceae. We also explored that calebin A reduce the weight and blood sugar of mice that are induced by HFD, and show a dose-dependent reaction. Moreover, calebin A decreases the weight of white, beige, and brown adipose tissue, and also restores liver weight. In cold exposure experiments, calebin A can better maintain rectal temperature through thermogenesis. In summary, calebin A has a good thermogenesis function and is effective in anti-obesity. It can be used as a novel gut microbiota modulator to prevent HFD-induced obesity. |
