Rice Bran Oil Improves Insulin Resistance by Affecting the Expression of Antioxidants and Lipid-Regulatory Genes

The present study investigated the molecular effects of rice bran oil (RBO) on lipid‐regulatory genes (sterol regulatory element binding protein‐1 [ Srebf1 ] and peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors‐α [ Ppara ]) and the expression of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD1) genes in insulin‐resistant rats. Rats were divided into five groups: animals that received standard diet (control); rats fed standard diet containing RBO as the...
