Fig. 2. Effect of garlic extracts on the cell viability of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were treated with various concentrations (0~500 μg/mL) of garlic extracts. (A) Cell viability of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes after 24 h. (B) Cell viability of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes after 48 h. (C) Cell viability of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes after 72 h. VG: vinegar pickled garlic, PG: pickled garlic, RG: raw garlic, MDI: 0.5 mM 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthin, 1 μM dexamethasone, 10 μg/mL insulin. All values are means of determinations obtained in three independent experiments. Values are mean±standard deviation. *Significantly different at P<0.05 compared with 0 μg/mL by the t-test, for each time point.
