Green Tea Extract Protects Against Diethylnitrosamine‐Mediated Liver Injury And Cell Proliferation By Attenuating STAT3 And iNOS Expression In High Fat‐Induced Obese Mice With Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Abstract:Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) increases hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk by increasing inflammation and oncogenesis. Antiinflammatory activities of green tea extract (GTE) protect against dietary high-fat (HF)-induced NASH. I hypothesized that antiinflammatory and anti-oncogenic activities of GTE during NASH would also prevent diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced development towards HCC. Male C57BL/6J mice (4 wk old) were fed a HF diet devoid of, or supplemented with, GTE at 2% (w/w) and received once wee… Show more
