The degree of apoptosis is shown by TUNEL staining. Mice were fed the ND (a, c, e, g) or HFD (b, d, f, h) for 25 weeks. The mice were treated with 0 (a, b), 100 (c, d), 200 (e, f), and 300 (g, h) mg of SNPs kg−1 mouse body weight twice per week. The CV is indicated. Scale bars are 50 μm (a–h). The quantification of TUNEL-positive cells was analyzed by Image-Pro (i). Data are expressed as the means ± standard error of the means (n = 6)
