Abstract (original English)

Chalcones is a flavonoid wildly presented in many herbs. It has the effect to inhibit cells adipogenic differentiation. In order to study the effect of pinostrobin chalcone extracted and isolated from leaves of hickoryes on the adipogenic differentiation of murine embryonic mesenchymal stem cell (C3H10T1/2), MTS [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)- 2H-tetrazolium] method was used to detect the cell proliferation; adipogenic differentiation was characterized by oil red O staining and isopropanol extraction; the triglyceride content was detected by GAP-PAP enzyme method; and the C3H10T1/2 cell differentiation into adipocytes was also examined by the mRNA and protein expression of PPARγ, C/EBPα and FABP4 by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively. Results indicated that pinostrobin chalcone almost had no effect on cell proliferation activity when the concentration was less than or equal to 50 μmol•L⁻¹; the oil red O staining, isopropanol extraction and GAP-PAP enzyme method showed that pinostrobin chalcone significantly decreased the C3H10T1/2 adipogenic differentiation and triglyceride content in the cytoplasm of adipocytes; the RT-PCR and Western blot analysis showed that pinostrobin chalcone can down-regulate the mRNA and protein levels of FABP4, PPARγ and C/EBPα in C3H10T1/2 cells(P<0.05 or P<0.01). The experiment results suggest that pinost
