Effects of α-lipoic acid on lipid metabolism and mitochondrial biogenesis in adipocytes: study of the molecular mechanisms involved
α-lipoic acid (5-(1,2-dithiolan-3-yl)-pentanoic acid) is a natural occurring compound which possesses antioxidant properties. Moreover, anti-obesity properties in both rodents and humans have been attributed to α-lipoic acid being adipose tissue a target for this compound. In this context, the prese...
