Effects of gongmi tea and gongmi so extract on cell viability. (A) Mouse splenocytes, (B) 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, and (C) MDI-treated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were seeded in 96-well plates. The cells were treated with garcinia, gongmi tea, or gongmi so extract (100, 200, and 300 μg/mL) for 48 h. Cell viability was tested via MTS assay, and absorbance was measured at 490 nm. Gongmi tea and gongmi so extract did not exhibit cytotoxicity at concentrations of 100, 200, and 300 μg/mL. Data are expressed as mean±standard error of the mean. MDI, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, dexamethasone, and insulin; MTS, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxy-methoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium.
