Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Methionine-choline-deficient diet (MCD diet) has been established to use to make an animal model of non-alchoholic steatohepatitis. In PPAR gamma DNA-binding domain-interacting protein1 (PDIP1) knockout mice, serum ALT and TG, and hepatic fatty deposition, inflammation, and fibrosis were significantly reduced compared to wild type mice. Besides, the expressions of hepatic lipid-related genes have changed and hepatic inflammatory cytokines and fibrogenic genes were significantly reduced compared to wild type mice. Thus, we showed that non-alchoholic steatohepatitis was ameliorated in PDIP1 knockout mice.
