This effect was observed predominantly in visceral adipose tissue, rather than in the subcutaneous depot. The obesity prevention was accompanied by the improvement of serum lipid profile. The mechanisms underlying the extract anti-obesity effect which were analysed in epididymal adipose tissue, involve preventing the rise in the availability of triglyceride synthesis substrates induced by high-fat high-fructose feeding, the inhibition of triglyceride assembly, and in the case of the high dose, increased lipolysis.[Conclusions] According to these results, the peel wastes of Opuntia stricta var. dillenii fruit represent a promising natural source of bioactive compounds for obesity prevention. Nevertheless, these preclinical effects should be replicated in further studies in human beings.This research was funded by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (PID2020-118300RBC22 and PID2020-118300RB-C21 projects) and co-funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and “ERDF A way of making Europe”, the Government of the Basque Country (IT1482-22) and CIBEROBN (CB12/03/30007).Peer reviewedMultidisciplinary Digital Publishing InstituteMinisterio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (España)Agencia Estatal de Investigación (España)European CommissionEusko JaurlaritzaCentro de Investigación Biomédica en Red Fisiopatología de la Obesidad y Nutrición (España)Instituto de Salud Carlos IIIConsejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]2025202520252025info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Publisher's versioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/404685reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
