(B) Abdominal fat weights and the retroperitoneal and epididymal fats from rats treated with or without EPK (100 and 200 mg/kg) were removed and weighed. (C) Representative picture of Immunohistochemical staining for PPARγ and p-AMPK in liver tissue sections; normal group (N), control group (C). Data were expressed as means ± SD. Values with the different superscript letters indicate statistical significance (P<0.05) between groups by Duncan’s multiple range test. |
