Fig 1. Effect of experimental diets on lipid accumulation in the liver of C57BL/6 mice.

Fig 1

A: Hepatic tissue stained with haematoxylin and eosin, showing differences in lipid accumulation among experimental groups. B: Lipid accumulation in the liver assessing levels of cholesterol and triglycerides. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Means in a column showing differing letters indicate statistically significant difference, p < 0.05. Values correspond to one way ANOVA from the Bonferroni's Multiple Comparison Test. Ctrl: Control diet. Ch: High cholesterol diet (0.5%). Ch+Sim: High cholesterol diet (0.5%) + simvastatin (0.03 g/100 g). Ch+Gl-LD-1: High cholesterol diet (0.5%) + Gl-1 extract, low dose (0.5%). Ch+Gl-HD-1: High cholesterol diet (0.5%) + Gl-1 extract, high dose (1.0%). Ch+Gl-LD-2: High cholesterol diet (0.5%) + Gl-2 extract, low dose (0.5%). Ch+Gl-HD-2: High cholesterol diet (0.5%) + Gl-2 extract, high dose (1.0%).
