Anti-Obesity Effect of α-Cubebenol Isolated from <i>Schisandra chinensis</i> in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes

The efficacy of α-cubebenol isolated from <i>Schisandra chinensis</i> has been studied in several diseases, including cecal ligation, puncture challenge-induced sepsis, and degranulation of neutrophils. To identify the novel functions of α-cubebenol on lipid metabolism, alterations on th...
