The present study aimed to investigate the protective effects and mechanisms of Didymin from Mentha spicata on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) induced by dexamethasone and high-fat diet (DEX/HFD) in C57BL/6J mice. Briefly, mice were acclimated for 5 days and then subjected to DEX/HFD from days 5 to 28; meanwhile, the animals were treated with Didymin or Silibinin from days 12 to 28. Key indicators of NAFLD were then detected, including the pathological changes of liver tissues, serum biochemical indicators, inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis and lipid metabolism.
