Effect of FC on the impaired insulin signal pathway in vitro and vivo. a, b, c and d referred to the protein expression of 3T3-L1 adipocytes. e, f, g and h referred to the protein expression of white adipose tissue (WAT) of C57BL/6 mice. a, b, e and f referred to the tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes or C57BL/6 mice IR model. a, c, e and g referred to the expression of GLUT-4. a, d, e and h referred to the expression of PPARγ. The column graphs were the statistical results of band intensities and the intensities were quantified by Quantity One. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6). * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.005
