Effect of LE on lipid accumulation in liver. (a) H&E staining and (b) oil-red O staining (×200). Eight sections per group were measured. Rats were given an ND, an HD, HD containing LE or HD containing tea catechin for 6 weeks. The liver was removed, fixed in 10% formalin, paraffinized, and stained using hematoxylin and eosin (a). A cryostat was also used to prepare tissue sections for staining with oil-red O (b). Details of the diets are given in Section 2.
