Figure 5From: Anti-obesity effect of an isoflavone fatty acid ester on obese mice induced by high fat diet and its potential mechanismEffect of compound 1a on the inhibition of cell viability in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. After the influence reached 80%, 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were incubated with compound 1a, at the indicated concentration (1 × 10-7, 1 × 10-6, 1 × 10-5, 1 × 10-4mol L-1) for 48 h; growth rate was assessed by MTT assay. The inhibition ratio was calculated by formula 1. All values are mean ± SD (n = 3)Back to article page
