Capsanthin, the red xanthophyll pigment, is used as a food additive approved by the European Union (EU) under the name as E160c. The common names for E160c are paprika extract, capsanthin or capsorubin. Capsanthin shows potent anti-adipogenic, lipolytic and fatty acid burning activities due to its potent adrenoceptor-beta2-agonistic activity. It was revealed, that capsanthin was not a thermogenic substance that is why it may be a good candidate for the development of new bioactive agent effective as a new anti-obese or insulin sensitivity enhancing substance.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

Supplementing capsanthin-rich paprika juice for 1 wk (equivalent to three doses of 5.4 micromol capsanthin/d; 16.2 micromol/d), the level of capsanthin reached a plateau (0.10-0.12 micromol/L) between d 2 and 7 and was not detectable by d 16.

Route of Administration: Oral

In Vitro Use Guide

Capsanthin Inhibits adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. During adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, capsanthin (10 uM) inhibited adipogenesis (IC₅₀; 2.5 μM) and also showed lipolytic activity in differentiated adipocytes from the preadipocytes (ED₅₀; 872 nM). It was found, that the pharmacological activity of capsanthin on adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 was mainly due to its adrenoceptor-β₂-agonistic activity
