Proteins involved in lipid metabolism in the liver of the experimental mice. M. alba extract (400 mg/kg b.w), A. melanocarpa extract (400 mg/kg b.w) or mixture extract were orally administered to experimental mice fed a high-fat diet for 14 weeks. AMPK, adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase, p-AMPK, phosphorylated AMPK, ACC, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, p-ACC, phosphorylated ACC. (A) Western blot, (B) relative expression of p-AMPK, and (C) relative expression of p-ACC. ND, normal diet, HD, high-fat diet, MA, high-fat diet + M. alba 400 mg/kg bw, AR, high-fat diet + A. melanocarpa 400 mg/kg bw, MA + AR, high-fat diet + mixture of M. alba and A. melanocarpa (400 mg/kg bw). Results are expressed as means ± S.D (n = 10). Means with different superscript letters (a, b, c, d) are significantly different from each other by Duncan’s test of ANOVA at p < 0.05. “a” denotes the highest value and “d” represents the lowest value.
