From: YC-1 induces lipid droplet formation in RAW 264.7 macrophages
The effect of different doses of YC-1 on lipid droplet formation and cell viability in RAW 264.7 macrophages. a Dosage-dependent YC-1 enhanced lipid droplet formation. RAW 264.7 macrophages were treated with different concentrations of YC-1 for 24 h. After fixation and staining with oil red O, the cells were observed by light microscopy. Scale bar = 30 μm. b 30 μM YC-1 reduced the cell viability of macrophages. RAW 264.7 macrophages were treated with different concentrations of YC-1 for 24 h and the cell viability was measured by the MTT assay (n = 6). c Quantification of total lipid content of macrophages (n = 6). * indicates P < 0.05 compared to the control group
