Kaempferol attenuates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis by regulating serum and liver bile acid metabolism.

ABSTRACT: Objective: Changes in bile acids (BAs) are increasingly recognized as potential targets for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Kaempferol has been proved to be anti-inflammatory and reduce the disorder of lipid metabolism. In order to analyze the BA profile in NASH mice and determine the predictive biomarkers of kaempferol treatment, serum-targeted metabolomics and liver tissue RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) were carried out. Design: Six normal control mice (NC group), eight HFD-fed mice (HFD group), and eight kaempferol-treated HFD-fed mice (HFD + KP group) were included in the present study. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to a tandem mass spectrometry system (UPLC-MS/MS) was used to quantify serum and liver BAs, and RNA-seq was used to quantify liver different
