Luteolin is a common phytochemical from the flavonoid family with a flavone structure. Studies reported several bioactivities for\nluteolin and similar flavones. Attenuating the increased adipogenesis of bone marrow cells (hBM-MSCs) has been regarded as a\ntherapeutic target against osteoporotic bone disorders. In the present study, the potential roles of luteolin and its sulfonic acid\nderivative luteolin-OSO3Na in regulating adipogenic differentiation of hBM-MSCs were investigated. Adipo-induced cells were\ntreated with or without compounds, and their effect on adipogenesis was evaluated by adipogenic marker levels such as lipid\naccumulation and PPARc pathway activation. Luteolin hindered the adipogenic lipid accumulation in adipo-induced hBMMSCs.\nImmunoblotting and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis results indicated that luteolin downregulated\n................................
