| Research Abstract |
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is emerging as the most common liver disease in metabolic syndrome. We found that the dietary intake of powdered whole Panellus serotinus (Mukitake) and its extracts alleviate NAFLD in obese, diabetic db/db mice. Our study demonstrated that Mukitake displays at least two different physiological actions that alleviate NAFLD : one through the reduction of inflammatory damage by its suppression in MCP-1 production and the other through an increase of the serum adiponectin level and the prevention of visceral fat accumulation.
