ABSTRACT

An EtOH extract of Valeriana fauriei was found to exhibit potent inhibition of fat accumulation against 3T3-L1 murine adipocytes. After performing several chromatographic steps, we successfully isolated the conjugated linoleic acid derivative, 9-hydroxy-10E,12Z-octadecadienoic acid (9-HODE). Synthesized 9-HODE and its analogs showed inhibitory activity against fat accumulation.
