Effects of WEG and HPG on mRNA expression of genes related to adipogenesis and pro-inflammatory cytokines in white adipose tissue (WAT). The mRNA levels of (a) adipogenesis and (b) pro-inflammatory cytokines were measured using real-time qPCR. Values represent fold changes compared to the control. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 9/group). a,b Mean values with unlike superscript letters are statistically different at p < 0.05. HF: high fat; WEG: hot water extract of ginger; HPG: high-hydrostatic pressure extract of ginger; PPAR-γ: peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ; aP2: adipocyte protein 2; TNF-α: tumor necrosis factor-α; IL-6: interleukin-6; MCP1: monocyte chemoattractant protein-1.
