Figure 1 Effects of Polygonum multiflorum extract on L02 adipocytes induced by fat emulsion. A: L02 cells were treated with 5% fat emulsion for 24 h followed by Polygonum multiflorum extract (10, 50, and 100 μg/mL) or fenofibrate capsules (150 μmol/L) for 24 h. Cells were harvested, and fat accumulation in cells was detected under a light microscope (× 200) after Oil red O staining; B: Levels of total cholesterol was determined using commercial kits; C: Levels of triglyceride was determined using a commercial kit; D: Levels of alanine transaminase were determined using a commercial kit; E: Levels of aspartate transaminase were determined using a commercial kit; F: Levels of glutathione were determined using a commercial kit; G: Levels of superoxide dismutase were determined using a commercial kit; H: Levels of Na+-K+-ATPase were determined using a commercial kit; I: Levels of Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase were determined using a commercial kit; J: Levels of complex I were determined using a commercial kit; K: Levels of complex II were determined using a commercial kit. Data were obtained from 3 independent measurements and are expressed as the mean ± SD. aP < 0.05, bP < 0.01, cP < 0.001 vs model group. ALT: Alanine transaminase; AST: Aspartate transaminase; ATPase: ATP synthase; Complex I/II: human mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I/II, FC: Fenofibrate capsules; GSH: Glutathione; MOD: Model; NC: Normal control; PM: Polygonum multiflorum; SOD: Superoxide dismutase; TC: Total cholesterol; TG: Triglyceride.
