Quantitative analyses of histopathological results reveal a notable increase in collagen volume fraction (9.95 ± 0.50) and oil red area fraction (10.06 ± 0.64) in CP mice treated with WD + Hx, meanwhile NAC (collagen volume fraction: 5.29 ± 0.60; oil red area fraction: 0.08 ± 0.01) and Allopurinol (Allo, 2 g/L in the drinking water and a Western diet for 8 weeks) treatment (collagen volume fraction: 4.63 ± 0.36; oil red area fraction: 0.06 ± 0.001) induced remarkable alleviation in parameters above.

In the target organs (liver and brain cortex), Hx treatment suppressed the relative mRNA expression of critical enzymes in purine metabolism (HPRT, XOR, and PNP) as well as crucial players in anti‐oxidative system (Nrf2, SOD‐1, and CAT), meanwhile, NAC and Allopurinol (Allo, 2 g/L in the drinking water and a Western diet for 8 weeks) treatment induced significant upregulation in relative expression of these genes.
