Mangiferin Improved Palmitate-Induced-Insulin Resistance by Promoting Free Fatty Acid Metabolism in HepG2 and C2C12 Cells via PPARα: Mangiferin Improved Insulin Resistance

Figure 4

Effects of mangiferin on PA and TG in HepG2 cells and C2C12 myotubes. HepG2 cells and C2C12 myotubes were treated with 0.25 mM of PA and 12.5, 25, and 50 μM of mangiferin for 24 h. The concentrations of PA in medium (a) and intracellular (b) PA were determined by GC-MS. The TG (c) mass was quantified by using a TG test kit. The experiments were repeated 3 times. Data are presented as means ± SD (). compared with the PA stimulation group.
