DG inhibited obesity in mice induced by high fat diet and reduced body weight in mice fed with normal chow diet. (A) Representative pictures of abdominal adipose in each group at 14 weeks. (B) Body weight gain of each group at 14 weeks. (C) Body weight of mice was monitored weekly for 14 weeks. (D) eWAT, rpWAT, mWAT and iWAT together with iBAT were collected and weighed during dissection of mice in each group. Values were denoted as mean ± SEM (n = 8). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001; ****p < 0.0001. Abbreviations: DG, diammonium glycyrrhizinate. eWAT, white adipose tissue (WAT) of the epididymis. rpWAT, WAT of the retroperitoneum. mWAT, WATof the mesentery. iWAT, WAT of the inguen. iBAT, interscapular brown adipose tissue.
