Green tea ameliorated abnormalities in plasma lipids in KK-A^y mice.

Contents	Group A	Group B	Group B
Triacylglycerol (mg/dL)	166.4 ± 7.3 a	121.7 ± 5.6 b	118.4 ± 6.3 b
Total cholesterol (mg/dL)	140.8 ± 7.2	133.3 ± 9.3	157.2 ± 7.2
NEFAs (meq/dL)	0.37 ± 0.03	0.31 ± 0.03	0.30 ± 0.02

Mice were treated as shown in Figure 1B, and the concentrations of plasma lipids were measured using the corresponding commercial test kits. Data are expressed as the means ± SE (n = 7). Values sharing the same letters were not significantly different (Tukey–Kramer multiple comparison test; p < 0.05).
