Antiadipogenesis of Oroxylum indicum (L.) Kurz Extract via PPARγ2 in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes

Figure 3

Morphology of 3T3-μL1 preadipocytes and adipocytes after staining with Oil Red O. Lipid droplets were stained in red color (yellow arrows). Nuclei were counterstained with hematoxylin, as indicated in blue color. (a) Nondifferentiated cells (ND) or preadipocytes. (b) Untreated adipocytes (CON). (c) Differentiated cells with 0.1% DMSO (V-CON). (d) Differentiated cells with 1.67 μg mL⁻¹ simvastatin (SIM). Differentiated cells with OIE at (e) 200 μg mL⁻¹; (f) 150 μg mL⁻¹; (g) 100 μg mL⁻¹; (h) 50 μg mL⁻¹. (a–h) Scale bar represents 100 μm, at 10X magnification.
