Changes of plasma Interleukin-6 and TNF-α in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver rats induced by high fat diet
Objective:IL-6 and TNF-α play critical roles in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD).We thus investigated the changes of plasma Interleukin-6(IL-6) and TNF-α in the nonalcoholic fatty liver of rats and their correlation.This will provide new insight into the pathology of NAFLD.Methods:Forty-eight male SD rats were divided in two groups randomly.The NAFLD was induced in male SD rats by feeding the high-lipid nutrition
whereas
the control group was fed with low-fat nutrition.All rats were sacrificed at the end of 2
4
6
and 10 weeks.The levels of ALT
AST
TG
TC
FBG
FINS
IL-6 and TNF-α in the sera of rats were measured.The liver index and IRI were counted and the pathologic changes of liver were recorded during experiments.Results:Compared with control group
the levels of ALT
AST
TC
TG
FINS
IRI
TNF-α and IL-6 in the sera of NAFLD group all increased significantly(P<0.01).The levels of TNF-α in NAFLD group started to increase significantly at week 4(P<0.05)
while the levels of IL-6 began to elevate from week 6(P<0.05).From week 2 to week 10
IL-6 was highly positively related to TNF-α(r = 0.931
P<0.05) and IRI(r = 0.946
P<0.05).Conclusion:The levels of IL-6 were highly correlated with TNF-α and IRI in the sera of NAFLD mouse models
which indicates that both IL-6 and TNF-α are crucial in the development of NAFLD.
