Green Tea Extract Supplementation Induces the Lipolytic Pathway, Attenuates Obesity, and Reduces Low-Grade Inflammation in Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet

Figure 1

Protein levels of HSL, ATGL, ABHD5, and perilipin A. Mesenteric adipose tissue extracts were immunoblotted with anti-HSL (a), anti-ATGL (b), anti-ABHD5 (c), and Peri A (d). The results of scanning densitometry are expressed as arbitrary units. Bars represent means ± SEM of 𝑛=6 mice, *𝑃<0.05 chow and green tea (CG) group versus chow and water (CW) group, ^$𝑃<0.05 high-fat and water (HW) group versus CW group, and ^#𝑃<0.05 high-fat and green tea (HG) group versus HW group. In (e), the representative bands of the molecules are shown. The membrane was stripped and immunoblotted with anti-α-tubulin antibody and used as loaded protein (lower panel in (e)).
