Figure 6

Effects of the two NS lactobacillus strains on adipocyte size in rats fed a high cholesterol diet. (A) Representative photomicrographs of hematoxylin and eosin staining of adipocytes (200×); (B) Adipocyte numbers in 3 different spots per rat. The data are shown as the mean ± standard deviation. a,b,c Mean values in each panel with different superscript letters differ significantly (p < 0.05). Control: normal diet; HC: high cholesterol diet; HC + NS5: high cholesterol diet + Lactobacillus plantarum NS5; HC + NS12: high cholesterol diet + Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus NS12.
