Quercetin Alleviates High-Fat Diet-Induced Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Accumulation in the Liver: Implication for Autophagy Regulation

Table 1

Effects of quercetin on body weight and liver ratio to body weight in mice chronically fed with high-fat diet for 24 weeks.

	ND	HFD	HFD + QR
Initial weight (g)	17.3 ± 1.2	16.7 ± 1.1	16.6 ± 1.3
Final weight (g)	26.8 ± 2.1	29.6 ± 2.1	30.3 ± 1.9
Liver to body weight ratio (%)	3.9 ± 0.4	4.7 ± 0.3	4.8 ± 0.5

ND: ApoE^(−/−) mice fed with normal diet; HFD: ApoE^(−/−) mice fed with high-fat diet; and HFD + QR: ApoE^(−/−) mice fed with high-fat diet and quercetin (100 mg/kg⋅bw). < 0.05 versus ND group ( in each group).
