Fig. 3From: Coix seed oil ameliorates cancer cachexia by counteracting muscle loss and fat lipolysisCSO attenuated muscle fiber atrophy and adipose tissue wasting induced by cancer cachexia. a. Representative figures of HE staining of epididymal adipose tissue in three groups (Ctrl, CA, CA + Coix). b.The quantitative comparison of cross-sectional area (um2) of adipocytes between three groups (Ctrl, CA, CA + Coix) revealed that CSO administration counteracted adipose tissue wasting. c. Representative cross-sectional histological staining of muscle fiber in three groups (Ctrl, CA, CA + Coix). d.The quantification of myofiber cross-sectional area showed that CSO administration attenuated muscle fiber atrophy. Values were expressed as mean ± SEM (*P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001)Back to article page
