Oleanolic Acid Diminishes Liquid Fructose-Induced Fatty Liver in Rats: Role of Modulation of Hepatic Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein-1c-Mediated Expression of Genes Responsible for De Novo Fatty Acid Synthesis

Figure 4

Representative images showing histology of liver (hematoxylin and eosin staining (a)–(c); Oil Red O staining (d)–(f) ×200) in water-control, 10% fructose solution-control, and fructose pair-fed oleanolic acid- (OA-) treated rats at week 10. Animals were administered with OA (25 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (OA: 0 mg/kg, 5% Gum Arabic) by oral gavage daily for 10 weeks. Data are means ± SEM ( each group). .
