Inhibitory effect of NTS on adipogenic differentiation. (A) Schematic representation of the experimental design. (BD) 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes were treated with NTS for GM and DM and analyzed at the indicated time point after the start of adipocyte differentiation. (A) During four days of culture, adipocytes were stained with Oil Red O and then photographed for differentiation under a microscope. Scale bar = 100 μm. Inhibitory effect of NTS on (B) lipid content and (C) triglyceride deposition in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells. Results are presented as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. Significant difference: ***p < 0.001 compared with the control group.
