Fibrosis was more predominantly observed in peribronchial and perivascular area compared that in lung parenchymal lesion in MT staining (×400) (D). One-way ANOVA followed by a post-hoc Bonferroni test was used in Fig. 4B,C. HFD, high-fat diet; EMP, empagliflozin; DUL, dulaglutide; combi, co-treatment with EMP and DUL.
