JPTGY treatment ameliorates HFD-induced fat accumulation and enhances the basal metabolic rate in mice. (A) An HFD-induced obesity mouse model was constructed and characterized by body weight. The mice in the established model were administered JPTGY or saline as a control, and the body weight (B), food intake (C), water intake (D) and rectal temperature (E) were recorded. (F) Blood glucose was detected using an automatic biochemical analyzer. (G-I) Serum insulin, TC and TGs were measured by ELISA. (J) The weight of abdominal adipose. (K,L) The HE (×400) and Oil Red O staining (×400) of liver tissues. *P<0.05 vs. control; ^#P<0.05 vs. obesity. JPTGY, Jian Pi Tiao Gan Yin; HFD, high-fat diet; TC, total cholesterol; TGs, total triglycerides; ELISA, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.
