Figure 1

Effects of berberine (BBR) on body weight and food intake of rats. Male SD rats at 6 weeks of age received a high-fat diet (HFD) or regular rodent chow. After 8 weeks of feeding, rats were treated for 16 weeks with BBR or vehicle (n = 8 per group). A: The body weight is the average weight of 8 rats at the beginning of BBR treatment and after 16-week experiment. N, Normal control; C, vehicle –treated rats fed with HFD; B, rats with berberine treatment (200 mg/kg/d). B: Effects of BBR on food intake. The food intake was measured every week. Values are mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05vs N; #p < 0.05 vs C.
