Kaempferol and kaempferide inhibited expression of PPARγ and C/EBPβ in OA-treated HepG2 cells. HepG2 cells were incubated with different concentrations of kaempferol or kaempferide in the presence of 0.5 mM OA for 48 h and followed by western blot analysis of the expression of PPARγ and C/EBPβ. (a) Representative blots. (b) Quantification results of the expression of PPARγ. (c) Quantification results of the expression of C/EBPβ. Data were expressed as mean ± SD of three independent experiments (n = 3). ## p < 0.01, compared with vehicle-treated control cells (Con); * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01, compared with OA-treated cells (OA).
