Administration of glutaredoxin-1 attenuates liver fibrosis caused by aging and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Glutaredoxin-1 (Glrx) controls redox signaling and has an anti-apoptotic function. We evaluated the role of Glrx on hepatic cell damage and fibrosis induced by a high-fat diet. We fed mice a high-fat high-fructose diet to induce non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and injected AAV-Glrx to express hepatocyte-specific Glrx in diet-induced NASH mice. AAV-Glrx suppressed fibrosis and improved liver function in the NASH liver. We used microarrays to profile gene expression in the NASH liver and find pathways that AAV-Glrx mediated to attenuate fibrosis and NASH progression.
