Endogenous annexin A1 is a novel protective determinant in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in mice
UNLABELLED Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is an effector of the resolution of inflammation and is highly effective in terminating acute inflammatory responses. However, its role in chronic settings is less investigated. Because changes in AnxA1 expression within adipose tissue characterize obesity in mice and humans, we queried a possible role for AnxA1 in the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (...
متن کاملIs Western Diet-Induced Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis in Ldlr-/- Mice Reversible?
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major public health burden in western societies. The progressive form of NAFLD, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), is characterized by hepatosteatosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and hepatic damage that can progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis; risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma. Given the scope of NASH, validating treatment p...
متن کاملPlasma Pentraxin3 is a Novel Marker for Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
BACKGROUND The changes in the liver in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) range over a wide spectrum, extending from steatosis to steatohepatitis (NASH). However it has remained difficult to differentiate between NASH and non-progressive NAFLD on the basis of the clinical findings alone. AIMS In this study we investigated the clinical usefulness of plasma Pentraxin3 (PTX3) levels to pre...
متن کاملIncreased Adiposity in Annexin A1-Deficient Mice
Production of Annexin A1 (ANXA1), a protein that mediates the anti-inflammatory action of glucocorticoids, is altered in obesity, but its role in modulation of adiposity has not yet been investigated. The objective of this study was to investigate modulation of ANXA1 in adipose tissue in murine models of obesity and to study the involvement of ANXA1 in diet-induced obesity in mice. Significant ...
متن کاملCystatin C Is a Crucial Endogenous Protective Determinant Against Stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Endogenous neuroprotection can be induced by ischemic and nonischemic preconditioning. However, not all subjects that undergo preconditioning exhibit similar favorable outcome. This study is to explore the molecules responsible for this phenomenon and find new therapeutic targets for stroke. METHODS Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to transient middle cereb...
