Platycodon grandiflorum extract represses up-regulated adipocyte fatty acid binding protein triggered by a high fat feeding in obese rats

Figure 5 FABP and other adipogeneic marker gene expressions in subcutaneous adipose tissue. The total RNA in subcutaneous adipose tissue was isolated with Trizol reagent and 10 mg of RNA was used for Northern hybridization. C: Control normal fat diet group (n = 10); H: 30% lard containing high fat diet group (n = 10); C + PGE: Control rats orally administered 150 mg/100 g body weight of PGE group (n = 10); H + PGE: High fat feeding with simultaneously administered PGE orally at the concentration of 150 mg/100 g body weight group (n = 10). Values are mean ± SE. They were compared using the ANOVA and post Tukey test. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
