    Product Description

    Sinensetin is a polymethoxylated flavone that is present in the Southeast Asian medical plant O. stamineus, as well as in orange oil. It has been shown to enhance adipogenesis and lipolysis by increasing cAMP levels in 3T3-L1 cells.1 Sinensetin is also reported to inhibit α-glucosidase and α-amylase activity in vitro, indicating its potential usefulness in the control of glucose absorption.2 Additionally, sinensetin has been shown to suppress the expression of genes associated with inflammation by regulating IκBα protein levels in LPS-activated macrophages.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
