From: Salvia hispanica L. (chia) seeds oil extracts reduce lipid accumulation and produce stress resistance in Caenorhabditis elegans

Fig. 2

Effects of Salvia hispanica L (chia) seeds following treatment with HE and BDE on (a) lipid accumulation measured by Adipo Red fluorescence in N2 worms; (b) lipid accumulation measured by AdipoRed fluorescence in tub-1 mutants; (c) TGs levels in N2 worms; (d) TGs levels in tub-1 mutants; (e) pharyngeal pumping in N2 and tub-1 mutants. The line indicates the control untreated group (100%). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Statistical significance was assessed by using two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey post-hoc test. *indicates statistical difference from the control strain (N2), # indicates statistical difference from untreated tub-1 worms and @ indicates significance between extracts
