Antioxidants vitamin E and 1-aminobenzotriazole prevent experimental non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in mice

Abstract: The present study provides morphological and molecular biological evidence for the protective role of the antioxidant vitamins E and ABT in ameliorating oxidative stress, hepatic apoptosis, and necroinflammation in experimental nutritional steatohepatitis.

“…Oxidative stress may damage cellular structures via lipid peroxidation of cellular membranes producing toxic metabolites [36] . In this study, vitamin E increased the antioxidant defense (increased activity of SOD and level of GSH) and attenuated the hepatic MDA level, as well as, TNF-α that may underlie the improvement of fructoseinduced metabolic and hepatic disorders by vitamin E that come in agreement with previous reports of Traber and Stevens [7] , and Nan et al [37] .…”

“…In rats fed a methionine-choline deficient diet (MCD) to induce NASH, α-tocopherol supplementation decreased histologic evidence of liver steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, decreased hepatic lipid peroxidation, and restored hepatic glutathione [37]. Likewise, mice fed a MCD and α-tocopherol had lower serum aminotransferase activities and hepatic MDA concurrently with improved histologic scores of hepatic steatosis and necroinflammation [38]. These were also accompanied by a suppression in hepatic nuclear factor kappa B activity, cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 protein levels, and increases in hepatic superoxide dismutase activity.…”

“…Some cases can progress to NASH and cirrhosis. Oxidative stress plays a key role in the development of NASH [28]. As a result, theoretically, antioxidative should be effective in the treatment of NASH.…”
