The degree of fibrosis is shown by picrosirius red 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 arrow indicates positive picrosirius red staining. The CV is indicated. Scale bars are 100 μm (a–h). The quantitative fibrosis was analyzed by Image-Pro (i). Data are expressed as the means ± standard error of the means (n = 6)
