The in vitro tests to validate the potential of M. paniculata in treating obesity showed that there was a significant decrease in PPARG and EP300 gene expressions in 3T3-L1 mature adipocytes treated with M. paniculata ethanolic extract starting at concentrations 62.5 μg/ml and 15.625 μg/ml, respectively. The gene discussed is PPARG; the disease is Obesity.
