Figure 2From: Molecular hydrogen attenuates fatty acid uptake and lipid accumulation through downregulating CD36 expression in HepG2 cellsEffects of hydrogen on fatty acid uptake and lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells. (A) After treatment with or without hydrogen for 24 h, cells were exposed to 0.3 mM palmitate-BSA (PA) for 24 h, and then stained with Oil Red O. The Oil Red O content was measured at a wavelength of 540 nm. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 6) (***p < 0.001). (B) After treatment with or without hydrogen for 24 h, cells were exposed to BODIPY-FL C16 for 15 min and fluorescence intensity was measured (*p < 0.05).Back to article page
