Fig. 4. Effect of GPC on localized fat reduction.
(A) Inguinal adipose tissue was dissected and measured after 3 days of GPC, PPC or AMPL injection. *p < 0.05 vs. saline control. (B) Ratio of injected or non-injected mouse inguinal fat pads mass was calculated. **p < 0.01 vs. saline control. (C) Inguinal adipose tissue section was prepared from injection site and stained by H&E. Scale bars indicate 100 μm. (D) Adipocyte area was measured, and the distribution of adipocyte is shown in each size range. GPC, glycerophosphocholine; PPC, phosphatidylcholine; AMPL, aminophylline.
