Effects of caffeic acid cinnamyl ester (CACE), caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), and caffeic acid benzyl ester (CABE) on the expressions of seven adipocytes in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells induced by palmitic acid (PA). (a) Adiponectin. (b) IL-6. (c) Leptin. (d) MCP-1. (e) Resistin. (f) PAI-1. (g) TNF-α. Note. 0.375% bull serum albumin (BSA) treatment is the control group; 500 μmol/L PA treatment is the model group. 500 μmol/L PA and two different concentrations of the phenolic compound treatment are drug treatment groups. All values represent the mean of triplicate determinations ± SD. Significant differences () from the model group are marked with .
