Figure 4

Anti-obesity effect of L. plantarum LMT1-48 in modified-HFD–fed mice. (A) Experimental scheme. (B) Body weight and (C) fat volume were measured to assess the anti-obesity effect of different concentrations (105, 106, 107, or 108 CFU) of the L. plantarum LMT1-48 extract in modified-HFD–fed mice (n = 4 mice per group). (D) Representative micro-computed tomography (CT) image of the abdominal fat (L2–L3 region). The visceral and subcutaneous fats are depicted in red and green colors, respectively. Two independent experiments were performed with n = 4 for each experiment. Error bars represent standard error of the mean (Mean ± SEM). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
