Effects of various ratios of DHA/EPA on inflammatory cytokines in high-fat diet-induced mice. Serum levels of TNF-α (a), IL-1β (b), and IL-6 (c) as measured by ELISA (n = 8). The expression of TNF-α (d), IL-1β (e), IL-6 (f) in hepatic tissues as measured by real-time PCR (n = 10). Each value is the mean ± SEM, and any two groups without the same lowercase or uppercase letters, as marked in the figures, indicate a significant difference of p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively
