Objective To investigate the effect of T0901317 on lipid accumulation and the expression of sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) in the liver of apoE-/- mice. Methods Male 8-week-old apoE-/- mice were randomly divided into four groups: baseline group (n= 10), vehicle group (n = 14), treatment group (n= 14) and prevention group (n= 14). All of the mice were fed a high-fat/high-cholesterol diet with or without LXR agonist T0901317 for 8 or 14 weeks. Lipid accumulation of the liver was observed by hematoxylin and eosi...
