From: Lotus leaf extract and L-carnitine influence different processes during the adipocyte life cycle
Additive effect of lotus leaf extract solution and L-carnitine on triglyceride accumulation during preadipocyte/adipocyte differentiation. Treatment of preadipocytes with 0.01% L-carnitine (n = 10), 0.5% lotus leaf extract solution (n = 12) or a combination of 0.01% L-carnitine and 0.5% lotus leaf extract solution (n = 12) on triglyceride accumulation during preadipocyte/adipocyte differentiation. Triglyceride levels of the respective control samples were set as 100%. Results are depicted as mean ± SD. Significant differences are marked with an asterisk (* for p ≤ 0.0001 against control; ** for p ≤ 0.0001 against control and all other treatments).
