CTPG supplementation reduced fat accumulation and adipocyte size in HFD mice. HFD mice were treated with CTPG for 6 weeks and mouse body weight (A), food intake (B) and energy intake (C) were measured. The indexes of eWAT (D), iWAT (E) and pWAT (F) were calculated. G The sections of WAT were made and stained with H&E (× 200). H The sizes of adipocytes were evaluated by ImageJ. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 and ###p < 0.001, HFD group versus NFD group. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001, CTPG and MET groups versus HFD group
