Effect of T. crispa on levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) liver enzymes in rats.
| Parameter groups | AST (U/L) | ALT (U/L) |
|---|---|---|
| Normal control (NC) | 154.51 ± 2.10 | 92.73 ± 1.06 |
| High fat diet (HFD) | 218.10 ± 2.94 | 136.00 ± 2.44 |
| High fat diet + T. crispa (HFDTC) | 161.25 ± 4.71* | 100.95 ± 3.10* |
| High fat diet + orlistat (HFDO) | 187.50 ± 3.00* | 115.00 ± 4.35* |
Means ± SEM with “∗” in the same column are significant at p < 0.05 compared to HFD group using one-way ANOVA test. n = 5 rats/group.
