Abstract |
Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) is reported to be beneficial in treating obesity which can develop into a range of metabolic disorders. The molecular mechanisms by which roselle extract works to prevent obesity-related insulin resistance remains poorly understood. We hypothesized that the roselle extract can decrease lipid accumulation and improve insulin resistance by downregulating adipogenesis. The aim of this study is to investigate the protective effect of roselle extract on the mechanism of adipogenesis and prevent complications of the obesity-related insulin resistance in high-fat diet-induced obese rats for 8 weeks. Male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups: control (C), high-fat diet (HFD), high-fat diet supplemented with 250 mg/kg BW of roselle (R250), and high-fat diet supplemented with 500 mg/kg BW of roselle (R500). The results demonstrated that roselle had the potential to reduce body weight, food intake, lipid profiles, inflammatory cytokines, lipid peroxidation, serum leptin, insulin and duodenal glucose absorption, while significantly increased glucose uptake of adipose tissue and muscle when compared to the HFD group. Roselle can prevent lipid accumulation by suppressing differentiation of 3T3-L1 adipocyte by downregulating the adipogenic gene expression. The results of this study demonstrated that the molecular mechanism underlying the protective effect of roselle, could be an alternative approach for obesity-related insulin resistance prevention.

The possible underlying mechanism of protective effects of roselle against obesity-induced insulin resistance. The roselle extract could inhibit lipid accumulation through downregulating the expression of adipogenic genes, and leads to decreased adipose tissue size and secretion of leptin, inflammatory cytokines (TNF-a and IL-6) and ROS levels. Decreases in inflammation, oxidative stress and leptin resistance, leads to an improvement of insulin resistance and increased insulin sensitivity, resulting in decreased food intake, lipid profiles, blood glucose and duodenal glucose absorption, whereas it promoted glucose absorption by adipose tissue and muscle in high-fat diet-induced obese rats.
Highlights |
• | Dyslipidemia, oxidative stress and inflammation are closely linked to obesity. |
• | Insulin resistance can be induced by metabolic complications in obesity. |
• | Roselle inhibited adipogenesis, reduced oxidative stress and systemic inflammation. |
• | Roselle improved obesity-induced insulin resistance and insulin sensitivity. |
