Chow-diet fed mice were treated daily with sterile water (CON), or high-fat diet fed mice were orally administrated daily sterile water (HFD), the mixture of blueberry anthocyanins and blackberry anthocyanins (ACNs, 100 mg/kg), or Metformin (Met, 100 mg/kg) A Representative oil red-stained liver of four groups. B Serum ALT levels. C Representative H&E-stained white adipose tissue. D Density map of white adipose cell size. E Serum level of TC. F Serum level of TG. G Fasting blood glucose. H Fasting insulin. I OGTT and AUC. J ITT and AUC. Scale bar, 100 μm, n = 8 for each group, data are presented as mean ± sd, # significant difference between CON and HFD groups; * significant difference between HFD and ACNs or Met groups; # or *, P < 0.05, ## or **, P < 0.01; ### or ***, P < 0.001.
