Abstract
⺠Ginseng reduced body weight, adipose tissue mass and adipocyte size, but not food intake in high fat diet-fed obese mice. ⺠Ginseng decreased blood vessel density and MMP activities in adipose tissue. ⺠The expression of angiogenic factors, MMPs, and their inhibitors in adipose tissue was markedly modulated by ginseng. ⺠Ginseng may prevent adipose tissue growth and obesity by inhibiting adipose tissue angiogenesis.
