Ginseng and Its Active Components Ginsenosides Inhibit Adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 Cells by Regulating MMP-2 and MMP-9

Figure 8

Effects of GE and GSs on the mRNA expression of NF-κB, Sp1, and AP-1 in 3T3-L1 cells. (a) 3T3-L1 cells were treated with MDI (control), MDI plus GE, TGSs, or Rb1 on days 0–2 only during the differentiation process. All values are expressed as the mean ± SD of R.D.U. using -actin as a reference. (b) Representative PCR bands from one of three independent experiments are shown. * compared with the Con group. Con: differentiated control; GE: ginseng extract; TGSs: total ginsenosides.
