Fatigue-Alleviating Effect on Mice of an Ethanolic Extract fromRubus coreanus

Alleviation of Weight-Gain in Mice by an Ethanolic Extract fromRubus coreanusunder Conditions of a High-Fat Diet and Exercise

“…20) The activity of SOD, an antioxidative enzyme, and the level of GSH, a key intracellular non-enzymatic antioxidant, in the muscles of the RCEadministered mice were significantly enhanced in comparison with the exercised control group. The elevation of the intracellular antioxidative defense system by RCE has been reported in a mouse model, 3) the present results being consistent with the previously reported data. Excess ROS generation by oxidative stress may inactivate an enzymatic antioxidant like SOD.…”

Antiobesity Effects of Unripe Rubus coreanus Miquel and Its Constituents: An In Vitro and In Vivo Characterization of the Underlying Mechanism

“…We previously reported that ripe R. coreanus alleviated fatigue by elevating the antioxidative potential [ 18 ]. Recently, we reported that the efficacy of the antiobesity effects of unripe R. coreanus (uRC) extract was higher than that of the ripe one in high fat diet- (HFD-) induced obese mice [ 19 ].…”

Ethanolic extract from Rubus coreanus enhanced swimming capacity in mice

“…An ethanol extract from Rubus coreanus was reported to possess antioxidant activities for scavenging of radicals and increasing activities of hepatic antioxidant enzymes (18). An ethanol extract analyzed for cyanidin-3-glucoside content was reported to contain a concentration of 2.41±0.01 g/100 g (33).…”

“…Some studies have indicated the efficacy of the fruit as anti-rheumatism, anti-oxidant, and anti-cancer agents (17). In a previous study, ethanol extract of freeze-dried Rubus coreanus fruit were implicated in relief of fatigue caused by 3 days of exhaustive swimming exercise based on enhancement of antioxidant enzyme activities (18).…”
