Figure 6. Inhibition rate of oleic acid-induced lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells after treatment with Taiwan citrus peel powder samples FCTP. HepG2 cells were treated with different concentrations of FCTP (1.56–6.25 mg/mL) in the presence of 0.5 mM oleic acid for 24 hours. Intracellular lipid accumulation was assessed by Oil Red O staining, followed by isopropanol extraction of the bound dye. Absorbance was measured at 516 nm to quantify lipid content, and inhibition rate was calculated relative to the oleic acid-treated control group. Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 3). Statistical significance vs. oleic acid-treated group: p ≤ 0.05 (*), p ≤ 0.001 (***) : Effects of Lactic Acid Bacteria Fermentation on the Bioactive Composition and Anti-Hepatic Steatosis Activity of Citrus Taiwanica Peel : Science and Education Publishing
