Figure 3
Inhibitory effects of OYSGS extract on lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Adipocyte differentiation was induced for 8 days with or without OYSGS. (a) After the differentiation, lipid accumulation in the cells was stained with Oil Red O dye and visualized under an inverted microscope at 200x of magnification. (b) Lipid droplets were quantified using Metamorph offline (Molecular Devices Co., Sunnyvale, CA). (c) The triglyceride contents were measured enzymatically using a commercial kit at 570 nm. Results are presented as the mean SEM. ### compared with the undifferentiated group. and compared with the differentiated group. The graph represents the number of lipid droplets (b) and TG contents (c) from three independent experiments.
