Fenugreek lactone attenuates palmitate-induced apoptosis and dysfunction in pancreatic β-cells

Figure 6 Effects of fenugreek lactone on protein expression of protein kinase C-α, P-protein kinase C-α and p47phox in NIT-1 β-cells exposed to palmitate. Each bar is described as corresponding proteins/β-actin. FL supplementation inhibited the expression of above mentioned proteins. Representative gels and protein levels for (A) p47phox and PKC-α or P-PKC-α (B) were measured by Western blot in NIT-1 pancreatic β-cells. Data are shown as the mean ± SD. ^aP < 0.01 vs control group; ^bP < 0.01 vs PA group; ^dP< 0.01 vs PA group. PA: Palmitate; FL: Fenugreek lactone.
