Research Abstract |
The high-fat diets (HFD)-fed mice increased in adipose tissue levels, compared with control diets (AIN-93) fed mice. The adipose tissue levels of HFD-fed mice were decreased by oral administration of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). Moreover, the orally administrated HFD-fed mice of ATRA increased in energy expenditures due to enhancement of fat combustion. T aken together, ATRA could protect from HFD-induced obesity .
