Hiroko Kobayashi,Emi Horiguchi-Babamoto,Mio Suzuki,Hiroko Makihara,Hiroshi Tomozawa,Masahito Tsubata,Tsutomu Shimada,Tsutomu Shimada,Kiyoshi Sugiyama,Masaki Aburada +9 more
TL;DR: KPE enhanced the thermogenesis effect ofbrown adipocytes as well as promoted the differentiation of brown adipocyte cells, which is one of the energy expenditure organs in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tsutomu Shimada,Tsutomu Shimada,Yuichiro Nakayama,Yuichiro Nakayama,Yukiko Harasawa,Yukiko Harasawa,Hirofumi Matsui,Hiroko Kobayashi,Yoshimichi Sai,Ken-ichi Miyamoto,Shunji Tomatsu,Masaki Aburada +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the extract of S. reticulata has therapeutic effects on obesity and metabolic disorders by enhancing lipogenesis genes and suppressing lipolysis genes through the activation of AMPKα in adipocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Kaempferia parviflora extract on knee osteoarthritis
Hiroko Kobayashi,Ryo Suzuki,Kei Sato,Takatoshi Ogami,Hiroshi Tomozawa,Masahito Tsubata,Koji Ichinose,Masaki Aburada,Wataru Ochiai,Kiyoshi Sugiyama,Tsutomu Shimada +10 more
TL;DR: Results from a study of KPE using the monoiodoacetic acid rat OA model revealed that KPE reduced the pain threshold and severity of osteoarthritic cartilage lesions and the mechanism of action and active components were investigated using IL-1β-treated human knee-derived chondrocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of the active ingredient of Kaempferia parviflora, 5,7-dimethoxyflavone, on the pharmacokinetics of midazolam
Wataru Ochiai,Hiroko Kobayashi,Satoshi Kitaoka,Mayumi Kashiwada,Yuya Koyama,Saho Nakaishi,Tomomi Nagai,Masaki Aburada,Kiyoshi Sugiyama +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that continued ingestion of 5,7-DMF decreases the expression of CYP3As in the liver, consequently increasing the blood concentrations of drugs metabolized by CYP 3As.
