Adipocyte differentiation inducer, adiponectin expression inducer, and manufacturing method

Abstract

The objective is to provide a previously unknown adipocyte differentiation inducer. [Solution] A fat cell differentiation inducer containing sesamolinol as an active ingredient.

Claims

1. A fat cell induction promoter that contains only sesamolinol as its active ingredient, which promotes the conversion of preadipocytes to adipocytes.

2. An adiponectin expression inducer containing only sesamolinol as its active ingredient.

3. A method for producing an adipocyte differentiation inducer from preadipocytes to adipocytes, comprising extracting sesamolinol from sesame seed husks using a solvent, and containing only the extracted sesamolinol as an active ingredient.

4. A method for producing an adipocyte differentiation inducer from preadipocytes to adipocytes, comprising extracting sesamolinol from sesame seed husks using a solvent, and containing the extracted sesamolinol as an active ingredient, The step of including the sesamolinol as the active ingredient is: (a) A step of performing an extraction treatment on the sesame seed coat using the solvent, and obtaining an extract obtained by the extraction treatment, (b) A step of purifying sesamolinol by performing preparative HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) on the solution containing the extract obtained in step (a), (c) A method for manufacturing the adipocyte differentiation inducer, comprising the step of including the sesamolinol purified in step (b) as an active ingredient in the adipocyte differentiation inducer.
