Description
4'-Methoxychalcone regulates adipocyte differentiation through PPARγ activation. 4'-Methoxychalcone modulates the expression and secretion of various adipokines in adipose tissue that are involved in insulin sensitivity.

How to use
In Vitro:
4'-Methoxychalcone (5 μM; 8 days) markedly increases the mRNA expression of adipogenic genes during adipocyte differentiation, PPARγ, aP2, FAS, adiponectin and GluT 4. 4'-Methoxychalcone (5 μM; 8 days) reduces the upregulated mRNA expression of IL-6, PAI-1, and MCP-1 by TNF-α in preadipocyte 3T3-L1 cells. 4'-Methoxychalcone (5 μM; 0-8 days) causes an increase in PPARγ expression during differentiation, while C/EBPβ protein expression is relatively unaffected.
