Artemisia iwayomogi Extract Attenuates High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity by Decreasing the Expression of Genes Associated with Adipogenesis in Mice
Figure 2
Effects of Artemisia iwayomogi extract supplementation on body weight gain, food efficiency ratio, and visceral fat pad weights of mice fed with high-fat diet. Mice were fed ND, HFD, or AED for 11 weeks. Changes in (a) body weight gain, (b) final body weight, (c) food intake, (d) FER, (e), (f) visceral fat pad weights, (g) representative pictures of H&E-stained fat cells from mice epididymal adipose tissue (×100), and densitometric analysis of adipocyte diameter in epididymal tissue. Data represent mean ± SEM, . Means without a common letter differ, . FER = (body weight gain for experimental period (g))/(food intake for experimental period (g)).
