Figure 3. Leaf and Flower, but not root, extracts from SJW induce insulin resistance in fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Figure 3

Fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were serum deprived and treated overnight (20 hours) with 25 μg/ml of the indicated SJW extract. After the pretreatment, cells were stimulated with insulin (10 nM) for 10 min. Glucose uptake was initiated by addition of 2-[3H] deoxyglucose. The glucose uptake values shown represent the mean +/- S.E. of triplicate determinations from four independent experiments.
