Effect of the hexane-isopropanolic extract (HIET) of Tungrymbai on the protein and mRNA expressions of different signaling molecules involved in lipid metabolism in palmitate (PA)-treated hepatocytes. (A) Phospho AMPK/AMPK protein expression; (B) SREBP1 protein expression; (C) SREBF1 mRNA; (D) SREBP2 protein expression; (E) SREBF2 mRNA; (F) FAS protein expression; (G) FAS mRNA; (H) phospho ACC/ACC protein expression; (I) ACACA mRNA; (J) phospho HMGCR/HMGCR protein expression; (K) HMGCR mRNA; (L) PPARα protein expression; (M) PPARA mRNA; (N) CPT1A protein expression; (O) CPT1A mRNA; (P) UCP2 protein expression; and (Q) UCP2 mRNA. The blots are representatives of three independent experiments. Full-length blots are presented in Supplementary Figure 2. Cells were pre-treated with HIET (0.1, 0.2, or 0.3 µg/mL) for 2 h followed by PA (0.75 mM) exposure for the next 20 h. Data are expressed as mean ± SE. “*” Denotes the significant difference from untreated (*p < 0.05) and “#” denotes the significant difference from PA-treated groups (#p < 0.05).
