Figure 2

Plasma total cholesterol (a), triglyceride (b), NEFA (c), glucose (d), and insulin (e) concentrations in water-control, 10% fructose solution-control, and fructose pair-fed oleanolic acid- (OA-) treated rats. Animals were administered with OA (5 or 25 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (OA: 0 mg/kg, 5% Gum Arabic) by oral gav age daily for 10 weeks. Data are means ± SEM ( each group). .
