Immune Mechanisms in Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
Non-alcoholic fatty liver had been believed to be a non-progressive benign disease. However, Ludwig et al. described some patients who exhibited progressive steatohepatitis without habitual alcohol drinking (Ludwig et al., 1980) and referred to this disease as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Later, NASH and non-progressive simple steatosis patients were included in the single disease enti...
متن کاملAdenosine A(2a) receptor stimulation prevents hepatocyte lipotoxicity and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in rats.
NEFA (non-esterified 'free' fatty acid)-mediated lipotoxicity plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis). In the light of the growing need for new therapeutic options for NASH, we investigated the action of A2aR (adenosine A(2a) receptor) stimulation against lipotoxicity. The effects of the A(2a)R agonist CGS21680 [2-p-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino-5'-N-e...
متن کاملSorafenib prevents liver fibrosis in a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) rodent model
Liver fibrosis occurring as an outcome of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) can precede the development of cirrhosis. We investigated the effects of sorafenib in preventing liver fibrosis in a rodent model of NASH. Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a choline-deficient high-fat diet and exposed to diethylnitrosamine for 6 weeks. The NASH group (n=10) received vehicle and the sorafenib group ...
متن کاملNon-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH): Risk Factors in Morbidly Obese Patients
The aim was to investigate the prevalence of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and risk factors for hepatic fibrosis in morbidly obese patients submitted to bariatric surgery. This retrospective study recruited all patients submitted to bariatric surgery from January 2007 to December 2012 at a reference attendance center of Southern Brazil. Clinical and biochemical data were studied as a fun...
