Therapeutic Effects of ''''Soothing the Liver Method'''' on Stress-related Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver on Neuroendocrine-metabolic Level

摘要

OBJECTIVE: To study the therapeutic effects of ''''soothing the liver method'''' on stress-related non-alcoholic fatty liver and its treatment mechanism on neuroendocrine-metabolic level. METHODS: The animal model of stress-related nonalcoholic fatty liver which is more in line with the modern social and clinical conditions was established by the method of chronic restraint compound high-fat feed. AST and ALT were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer. Serum cortisol and TNF-a were detected by radioimmunoassay. The relative expression of Nr3 c1 mRNA was detected by real-time quantitative PCR. RESULTS: Compared with the blank group, the scores of open field test, Nr3 c1 mRNA decreased, and AST, ALT, FFA were significantly increased in model group. Compared with model group, the open field test scores, Nr3 c1 mRNA increased,and Cor, AST, FFA, LDL, TNF-a, were significantly decreased in SNS group. CONCLUSIONS: ''''Soothing the liver method'''' can exert its therapeutic effect on stress-related non-alcoholic fatty liver on neuroendocrine-metabolic level.
