Flax oil-mediated activation of PPAR-g correlates with reduction of hepatic lipid accumulation in obese spontaneously hypertensive/NDmcr-cp rats, a model of the metabolic syndrome
Flax oil feeding has been proposed to have beneficial effects on the outcome of the metabolic syndrome due to the high n-3 fatty acid content of flax oil; however, the mechanisms of its action remain largely unknown. We investigated the effects of flax oil feeding on hyperlipidaemia, hyperglycaemia, hepatic steatosis and oxidative stress in the spontaneously hypertensive (SHR)/NDmcr-cp rats, a ...

متن کاملEzetimibe prevents the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease induced by high-fat diet in C57BL/6J mice
There is currently no established treatment for non‑alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), including its most extreme form, non‑alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Ezetimibe, an inhibitor of Niemann‑Pick C1 Like 1‑dependent cholesterol absorption, improves diet‑induced hyperlipidemia and attenuates liver steatosis and insulin resistance. The aim of the present study was to determine whether ezeti...
متن کاملhe Effects of Rosmarinic Acid on the Liver Fibrosis Induced by Non-alco-holic Steatohepatitis in Male Mice
Background and Objectives: Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) is a serious and increasing liver dis-ease, which develops into cirrhosis, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Rosmarinic Acid (RA) is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the role of RA on a mouse model of NASH-induced liver fibrosis. Methods: In this research, C57/BL6 mi...
