Effects of FRB on AMPKα2 and p-AMPKα levels. (a) AMPKα2 and (b) p-AMPKα protein levels from quantitative western blot analysis. c p-AMPKα/AMPKα2 ratio. Data were normalized with α-tubulin. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 3–4). ^*, ^# P < 0.05 compared to control, Non-FRB. AMPK AMP-activated protein kinase, FRB fermented rice bran, Non-FRB non-fermented rice bran, SEM standard error of the mean
