| Research Abstract |
One of flaxseed lignans, matairesinol(Mat), especially(-)-Mat suppressed IgE production, and allergy-suppressing effects in allergy model mice. In addition,(-)-secoisolariciresinol(SECO) strongly suppressed lipid accumulation in adipose cells, even though(-)-SECO strongly induced adipogenesis in pre-adipocyte cells.(-)-SECO enhanced adiponectin production in adipocytes. Moreover,(-)-SECO obviously suppressed fatty liver in diabetic model mice.
