Immunobiotics Beneficially Modulate TLR4 Signaling Triggered by Lipopolysaccharide and Reduce Hepatic Steatosis In Vitro

Figure 1

Lipid reduction potential of LABs in vitro. Free fatty acid-treated HepG2 cells were incubated with total cellular fluid of LABs (25 μl and 50 μl/ml) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 48 h, and the amount of lipid reduced by total cellular fluid of LABs in the cells was quantified using a spectrophotometer at 520 nm. Different superscript letters indicate significant differences at the 0.05 level. Asterisks indicate significant differences () between the samples and LPS.
