(a) XO expression by western blot analysis. Data are shown as mean band density normalized to β-actin. Results are means ± SE, /group. versus CTR; versus Fr; and versus Fr + CoPP. (b) Measurement of uric acid levels in pelleted cells at day 14 of adipogenesis in human MSCs treated with 500 μM fructose with or without CoPP, in the presence or absence of SnMP. Values represent means ± SEM of five independent treatments. versus CTR; versus Fr; and versus Fr + CoPP.
