Effects of kaempferide on glycolipid metabolism in C57 mice (n=12)

	ND	ND+Ka	HFD	HFD + Ka
Serum TC (mM)	1.98±0.35	2.13±0.41	4.76±0.52**	3.22±0.41#
Serum TG (mM)	0.67±0.08	0.53±0.06	1.22±0.24*	0.77±0.11#
Serum HDL (mM)	1.23±0.15	1.46±0.22	3.25±0.36**	2.17±0.24##
Serum LDL (mM)	0.52±0.05	0.39±0.07	1.16±0.11**	0.76±0.12##
Blood glucose(mmol/L)	5.58±0.64	5.67±0.63	8.63±1.02*	6.12±0.93#

Note: Ka treatment promoted a significant decrease in serum glycolipid levels in comparison with obese animals. All values are mean±SEM. All values are mean±SEM. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs ND, #P<0.05, ##P<0.01 vs HFD

HFD: high-fat diet; Ka: kaempferide; ND: normal-diet-fed
