Effect of Alkaloids from Nelumbinis Plumula against Insulin Resistance of High-Fat Diet-Induced Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Mice

Figure 4

Effect of NPA on phosphorylation of JNK (a) and IRS-1 (c) in the hepatic tissue of NAPLD rats analyzed by western blot. Phosphorylation levels were evaluated by the band strength of P-JNK/JNK or P-IRS1/IRS (b and d). Liver and adipose tissue protein blots were normalized to endogenous β-actin. Different letters (A, B, or C) upon each column represent significant differences between the treated groups ().
