Effect of lemon polyphenol supplementation on leptin and adiponectin

Diet group LF HF LP
Leptin (ng/ml) 2.6 ± 1.3a 52.8 ± 14.8b 30.0 ± 13.4c
Leptin mRNA level 0.19 ± 0.09a 0.89 ± 0.21b 0.66 ± 0.28b
Adiponectin (µg/ml) 113.6 ± 46.5 87.1 ± 29.9 75.0 ± 22.1

The mRNA level of adipose leptin were normalized to GAPDH. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD. n = 5–6 in each group. Values with different superscripts are significantly different, p<0.05.
