ABSTRACT: Purpose
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). TRPM2 ion channel functions as a molecular sensor for oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to examine the protective effects of Salidroside, a powerful antioxidative plant, on TRPM2 in an established in vitro model of NAFLD.Methods
NAFLD model was established by palmitic acid (PA) in hepatic L02 cell lines and was added to the media at a final concentration of 400 μM. Cells were used as normal group, PA group and PA receiving varied concentrations of Salidroside (75μg/mL, 150μg/mL, 300μg/mL). After treating 24 hrs, MTT assay was used to detect cell viability, and ALT level was measured using an appropriate kit assay. Intracellular lipid accumulation was
