Activation of PPARgamma by metabolites from the flowers of purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea)Kathrine B Christensen
Department of Food Science, University of Aarhus, Kirstinebjergvej 10, 5792 Aarslev, Denmark
J Nat Prod 72:933-7. 2009..Compound 5 was further shown to increase insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. The data suggest that flowers of E. purpurea contain compounds with potential to manage insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes...
Identification of bioactive compounds from flowers of black elder (Sambucus nigra L.) that activate the human peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gammaKathrine B Christensen
Department of Food Science, Aarhus University, Kirstinebjergvej 10, Aarslev, Denmark
Phytother Res 24:S129-32. 2010..These findings suggest that flavonoid glycosides cannot activate PPARgamma, whereas some of their aglycones are potential agonists of PPARgamma...
Activation of the nuclear receptor PPARγ by metabolites isolated from sage (Salvia officinalis L.)K B Christensen
Institute of Chemical Engineering, Biotechnology and Environmental Technology, University of Southern Denmark, Niels Bohrs Alle 1, DK 5230 Odense M, Denmark
J Ethnopharmacol 132:127-33. 2010..The active compounds and their possible mode of action are still unknown although it has been suggested that diterpenes may be responsible for the anti-diabetic effect of Salvia officinalis...
Seasonal variations in the concentrations of lipophilic compounds and phenolic acids in the roots of Echinacea purpurea and Echinacea pallidaMaria O Thomsen
Department of Food Science, Faculty of Science and Technology, Aarhus University, Kirstinebjergvej 10, DK 5792 Aarslev, Denmark
J Agric Food Chem 60:12131-41. 2012..purpurea and E. pallida is valuable for research, farmers, and producers of medicinal preparations...
