3. Results
3.1 agilawood Activity verification
To examine whether the eaglewood extract was able to activate AMPK, we treated HEK293T cells with different concentrations of eaglewood alcohol extract for 1 hour, and then examined pAMPK (Thr-172) and AMPK levels in cell lysates using SDS-PAGE and Western Blot. As shown in FIG. 1, pAMPK levels in cells were dose-dependently elevated after treatment with linalool extract. Western Blot analysis results showed that linalool extracts were both able to activate AMPK in HEK293T cells in vitro, both with AMPK activating activity and in an active-dose dependent manner. AMPK activating ability of ethanol extract of agilawood at a concentration of 120 μg/ml was similar to that of metformin, a positive drug.
