Effects of XAN and CXE treatments on the expression of inflammatory cytokine genes in liver tissue of HFD-induced obese mice. The expression of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and CRP genes in liver tissue was evaluated by RT-PCR. β-Actin was used as an internal control. Results are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 7). ## P < 0.01 compared to the ND group. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 compared to the HFD control group.
