Garcinia atroviridis fruit extract alters lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cell line model
Obesity is accumulation of excess body fat to the extent it may have an adverse effect on health. It is undeniably a complex disease with risk factors combination of genetics, lifestyle, nutrition, increasing age and lack of physical activity. Alarming increase of obesity prevalence since past few y...

Obesity is accumulation of excess body fat to the extent it may have an adverse effect on health. It is undeniably a complex disease with risk factors combination of genetics, lifestyle, nutrition, increasing age and lack of physical activity. Alarming increase of obesity prevalence since past few years brings the concern to explore effective therapy against obesity. Thus, targeting preadipocyte differentiation (adipogenesis) is one of natural product’s approaches to exert its anti-obesity property. The success of other Garcinia species for obesity management opened the gap to study the lipid alteration potential the locally underexplored Garcinia atroviridis or Asam Gelugur on 3T3-L1 cell culture model. The fresh fruit was extracted and freeze-dried. We first found that the powdered extract did not affect cell viability of both preadipocyte and adipocyte cells.
