Petasin is an anti-adipogenesic agent that effectively inhibits adipogenesis in 3T3-F442A cells with an IC50 of 0.95 μM. It achieves this by suppressing the expression of lipid synthesis factors such as ACC1, FAS, and SCD1 through the inhibition of transcription factors PPARγ and C/EBPα, as well as targeting TRPA1 and TRPV1 channels. Additionally, Petasin inhibits mitochondrial complex I, contributing to reduced tumor growth and metastasis. By activating the AMPK signaling pathway, it plays a significant role in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism. Petasin is also noted for its oral bioactivity.
