Ginsenoside Re Improves Inflammation and Fibrosis in Hepatic Tissue by Upregulating PPARγ Expression and Inhibiting Oxidative Stress in db/db Mice
Figure 2
Re has no significant effect on body weight, blood glucose, and lipids. (a) Body weight of mice prior to and following eight weeks of treatment; (b) blood glucose of mice prior to and following eight weeks of treatment; (c) TG levels in serum in mice after treatment; (d) TC levels in serum in mice after treatment; (e) HDL levels in serum in mice after treatment; and (f) LDL levels in serum in mice after treatment. Data are mean ± SD, and n = 8. One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test was employed for group comparisons, with indicating statistical significance. Ψ, compared to the WT group before treatment; compared to the WT group after treatment; Φ, compared to the DB group before treatment; and Ω, compared to the DB + Re group before treatment.
