Antiobesity Effects of an Edible Halophyte Nitraria retusa Forssk in 3T3-L1 Preadipocyte Differentiation and in C57B6J/L Mice Fed a High Fat Diet-Induced Obesity

Figure 2

Effect of daily oral administration of Nitraria retusa (50 and 100 mg/kg body weight) on cumulative body weight gain of mice fed with high-fat diet. Mice were fed normal diet (CND), high-fat diet (CHFD), high-fat diet supplemented with positive control Naringenin 10 mg/kg body weight (HFD + PC), high-fat diet supplemented with Nitraria retusa 50 mg/kg body weight (HFD + NR50), or high-fat diet supplemented with Nitraria retusa 100 mg/kg body weight (HFD + NR100) for 4 weeks. Body weight was daily measured at regular time. Data represent mean ± SEM, 𝑛=8, ^∗𝑃<0.05, ^∗∗𝑃<0.005 compared to the high-fat diet group.
