Green Tea Extract Supplementation Induces the Lipolytic Pathway, Attenuates Obesity, and Reduces Low-Grade Inflammation in Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet

Figure 2

Protein levels of TLR4, MyD88, and TRAF6. Mesenteric adipose tissue extracts were immunoblotted with anti-TLR4 (a), anti-MyD88 (b), and anti-TRAF6 (c). The results of scanning densitometry are expressed as arbitrary units. Bars represent means ± SEM of mice, # when compared to the high-fat diet and green tea (HG) group versus high-fat diet and water (HW) group. In (d), the representative bands of the molecules are shown. The membrane was stripped and immunoblotted with anti-α-tubulin antibody and used as loaded protein (lower panel in (d)).
