“…The protocol consisted of a 15-day exposure to the compound on a high-fat diet background, starting at the first feeding period. For example, curcumin [50–53], indole-3-carbinol [54], baicalein [55], dieckol [56], ellagic acid [52], kaempferol [51], quercetin [56], seapolynol [57] and silibinin [58], have all been reported to inhibit lipid accumulation in these early, post-embryonic developmental stages, when the adipocyte lineage is just starting to be established [20,27]. In our work, we used the ZOT protocol at later larval developmental stages, when the animals had a well-established WAT [30].…”
