mRNA analysis of adipogenic and lipogenic factors. The mRNA levels of two adipogenic transcription factors (PPARγ (A) and C/EBPα (B)) and two lipogenic proteins (aP2 (C) and FAS (D)) genes were measured by RT-PCR in the MDI + morusin-treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes using specific primers. The data represents the means ± SD of three replicates. * indicates p < 0.05 compared to the untreated group. # indicates p < 0.05 compared to the MDI + vehicle-treated group. OT; orlistat, MDI; adipogenic cocktail consisting of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, dexamethasone, and insulin.
