Sargassum fusiforme Fucoidan SP2 Extends the Lifespan of Drosophila melanogaster by Upregulating the Nrf2-Mediated Antioxidant Signaling Pathway

Figure 3

SP2 decreases the accumulation of triglyceride (TG) in D. melanogaster during the aging process. The flies were supplemented with varied concentrations of SP2 (0 (Con), 0.4 g/L (LSP), 0.8 g/L (MSP), and 1.6 g/L (HSP), and the contents of soluble TG in the male (a) and female (b) flies of different ages were then measured. Data are shown as the from three determinations, each used the extract obtained from 25 flies. “” and “” indicate a significant difference at the and levels, respectively.
