Effects of TQ on serum cholesterol.
(A) Total cholesterol serum concentration. (B) HDL cholesterol serum concentration. (C) LDL/VLDL cholesterol serum concentration. p≤0.05 when comparing (+) HFD and LFD, (*) HFD + TQ and HFD using independent t-tests. Results are means ± SEM (n = 6–7 mice per treatment group). LFD: low fat diet, HFD: high fat diet, TQ: thymoquinone, LDL: low-density lipoprotein, HDL: high-density lipoprotein, VLDL: very-low-density lipoprotein.
