ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The establishment of a safe, reliable and easily repeatable mouse model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is the prerequisite for the study of the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.OBJECTIVE:
To establish a C57BL/6 mouse model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and observe changes of biochemical indicators, which can provide a theoretical basis for its pathogenesis and drug treatment.METHODS:
Sixty healthy male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into a control group of 30 cases (normal diet), and a model group of 30 cases (high fat diet). Models of nonalcoholic fatty liver were established. At 8 weeks, body mass, liver index, and homogenate superoxide dismutase activity in the liver were detected. Changes in serum alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, triglyceride glycerol, cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were observed. Pathological examination was performed. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
(1) Pathological sections showed that large droplets and smal lipid droplets in the mouse liver and spread the whole liver. Swel ing of the liver cel s, visible cytoplasmic vacuoles and obviously inflammatory changes in liver cel s were observed in the model group. (2) Body weight and liver index were significantly higher in the model group than in the control group (P<0.05). Superoxide dismutase activity was significantly reduced in the liver (P<0.05). (3) Triglycerides, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were significantly higher, but high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were significantly lower in the model group than in the control group (P<0.05). (4) Nonalcoholic fatty liver mouse model is ideal for high-fat diet-induced animal model. The method is simple, repetitive, and can provide a stable animal model for the study on the mechanism of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and drug treatment.
