“ Anthocyanin treatment failed to reverse the effects of the high fat diet on body weight and glucose tolerance, but significantly reduced the leptin and IL-6 levels.”
“In rodent studies and in … adipocytes, it was observed that anthocyanins regulated the carbohydrate metabolism in the body due to the upregulation of GLUT4 (insulinregulated glucose transporter) translocation, increased activation … proliferator-activated receptor-γ) in adipose tissue and skeletal muscles as well as increased secretion of adiponectin and leptin.”

“Treated adipocytes with anthocyanins enhanced adipocytokine (adiponectin and leptin ) secretion and up-regulated the adipocyte specific gene expression without activation of PPARgamma in isolated rat adipocytes.”

“In addition, anthocyanins were found to potently inhibit the expression of adipocyte-specific genes, including adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein, leptin , and fatty acid synthase.”
