Quercetin and allopurinol reduce hepatic steatosis in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Biochemical analyses showing serum levels of TC (A), TG (B) and NEFA (C), and liver levels of TC (D), TG (E) and NEFA (F) at week 7 after STZ injection in different groups of rats as indicated. The data are expressed as the means ± SEM (n = 8). +++P < 0.001 versus normal control; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 versus diabetic control. Representative micrographs demonstrated liver histology in different groups of rats. Liver sections were stained with oil-red O reagent (magnification, ×400). Normal control (G), STZ control (H), STZ plus 25 mg·kg−1 quercetin (I), STZ plus 50 mg·kg−1 quercetin (J), STZ plus 100 mg·kg−1 quercetin (K) and STZ plus 10 mg·kg−1 allopurinol (L).
