Representative western blots showing PPARγ (A), TRB3 (B), phosphorylated Akt / Akt (C), and phosphorylated eNOS / eNOS (D), and NO release (E) in the conditioned medium. HG/HF, high glucose/high fat treatment; Mag, magnolol; BADGE, PPARγ antagonist bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE). All values are presented as mean ± SEM. n = 5–6. *P<0.05 vs. Control, #P<0.05 vs. HG/HF, $P<0.05 vs. HG/HF+BADGE.
