Morus alba L. Diminishes visceral adiposity, insulin resistance, behavioral alterations via regulation of gene expression of leptin, resistin and adiponectin in rats fed a high-cholesterol diet

In conclusion, M. alba leaves supplementation could attenuate adiposity, insulin resistance behavioral deficits via down-regulation of regulation of gene expression of leptin, resistin, but up-regulation of adiponectin gene expression in the visceral adipose tissue of rats fed a high-cholesterol diet.Graphical abstract
