Figure 7From: Sudachitin, a polymethoxylated flavone, improves glucose and lipid metabolism by increasing mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscleSudachitin increases energy expenditure. Ten-week-old mice treated with vehicle or sudachitin (5Â mg/kg) for 4Â weeks were placed into an Oxymax open-circuit indirect calorimetry system for 4Â days. Measurements of O2 consumption in control C57/Bl6 mice (A) or db/db mice (C), and energy expenditure were obtained in control C57/Bl6 mice (B) or db/db mice (D).Back to article page
