Mechanism of Huo-Xue-Qu-Yu Formula in Treating Nonalcoholic Hepatic Steatosis by Regulating Lipid Metabolism and Oxidative Stress in Rats

Figure 1

Effects of HXQYF on body weight (BW) during the experiment period. Rats were fed with a high-fat diet (HFD) to establish a mouse model of nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD). The NAFLD rats were administered with HXQYF (22.5, 45, 90 mg/kg). Essentiale (ESS) was adopted as a positive control for comparison. The BW of rats was measured in different weeks until the end of the experiment. BW values given are in means ± SD, with n = 10.  < 0.05 and  < 0.01 versus normal.  < 0.05 and  < 0.01 versus HFD. Statistically significant differences were determined using one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test or post hoc analysis.
