  1. The data are presented as the mean ± SEM.
  2. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post hoc correction (for equal variances) or Dunnett’s T3 test (for unequal variances).
  3. γ-GT glutamyl transpeptidase, TBIL total bilirubin, DBIL direct bilirubin, IBIL indirect bilirubin, HDL high-density lipoprotein, LDL low-density lipoprotein, ALT alanine transaminase, AST aspartate transaminase, ALP alkaline phosphatase.
  4. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 compared with the HC group.
  5. aP < 0.05 and bP < 0.01 compared with the HBV group.
