Comparison of Cell-Free Extracts from Three Newly Identified Lactobacillus plantarum Strains on the Inhibitory Effect of Adipogenic Differentiation and Insulin Resistance in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes

Figure 2

Cell viability and cytotoxicity of LS, LP, and L14 extracts on 3T3-L1 cells. (a) A lactate dehydrogenase cytotoxicity assay was used to detect the cytotoxicity upon exposure to four concentrations of three L. plantarum extracts (). (b) Water-soluble tetrazolium salt assay was performed to assess the effects of L. plantarum extracts on the viability (). The results showed that 50 and 100 μg/mL concentrations of three L. plantarum extracts were nontoxic to cell growth and maintenance during adipogenic differentiation. Error bars represent the standard deviation of the mean. , one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test was used.
