BBR reduces triglyceride accumulation in the livers of C57BL/6 mice and Huh7 cells. Male C57BL/6 mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) or standard chow for 16 consecutive weeks and received either BBR or vehicle for 8 weeks by gavage. The liver sections were stained by (A) haematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and (B) the hepatic triglycerides (TG) and (C) the TGs in the plasma were measured. (D) Huh7 cells were treated with free fatty acids (FFAs), BBR, and FFA+BBR. Triglycerides were determined fluorometrically using Nile red.
