PPARγ Agonistic Activity of Mimulone and Diplacone Encapsulated in Liposomes and Cyclodextrin Complexes

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Encapsulation of the geranylated flavanones mimulone and diplacone in hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrins (HP‐β‐CDs) and liposomes is evaluated for their peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma agonistic activity. While liposomes reduce efficacy, HP‐β‐CDs preserve up to 91.5% of mimulone's activity and mitigate diplacone's cytotoxicity, highlighting
