Punicalagin Decreases Serum Glucose Levels and Increases PON1 Activity and HDL Anti-Inflammatory Values in Balb/c Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet

Figure 3

Anti-inflammatory activity of HDL. Values are presented as inflammatory/anti-inflammatory properties of HDL isolated from the sera of the treated mice. Fluorescence in the absence of HDL was normalized to 1.0. Values > 1.0 after addition of the test HDL indicated proinflammatory activity; values < 1.0 indicated anti-inflammatory activity. Control group (vehicle) consisted of mice fed a HFD and administered DDW + 2% Tween 80. Nongroup mice were fed a regular diet. relative to vehicle.
