From: Bamboo shoot fiber prevents obesity in mice by modulating the gut microbiota
Bamboo shoot fiber prevented hepatic lipid accumulation.
(a) Liver weight (% of body weight). (b) Lipid content in liver. (c) Hepatic TG. (d) Hepatic TC. (e) Expression of lipid metabolism related genes (PPARα, Mttp, Fabp1 and Scd1) in liver. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (eight mice for each group). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, vs. mice fed LF diet. #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001, vs. mice fed HFC diet. LF, low fat diet; HFC, high-fat diet with cellulose; HFBS, high-fat diet with bamboo shoot fiber.
