Liver tissues were homogenized with physiological saline, centrifuged twice at 3500 r/min for 10 min each time, and the protein concentrations were determined using a bicinchoninic acid protein assay kit (#23227; Thermo Fisher Scientific). The levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C, #KT2827-A), total cholesterol (#KT30043-A), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C, #KT2797-A), aspartate aminotransferase (AST, #KT2856-A), glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (GHbA1c, #KT2511-A), insulin (#KT2579-A), adiponectin (#KT2547-A), resistin (#KT2552-A), ROS (#KT9261-A), malondialdehyde (MDA, #KT9264-A), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px, #KT2755-A), and catalase (CAT, #KT2833-A) were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits (Jiangsu Kete Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Jiangsu, China) according to the manufacturer’s instruction manuals.
