Ulmus parvifolia Jacq. Exhibits Antiobesity Properties and Potentially Induces Browning of White Adipose Tissue. [PDF]
The bark of Ulmus parvifolia Jacq. (UP) was traditionally used as a diuretic and to treat intestinal inflammation. With modern evidence of the correlation of diuretics, gut inflammation, and obesity, our study has shown the antiobesity effects of the bark of UP. UP treatment reduced lipid production and adipogenic genes in vitro.
