Abstract:
:To test the hypothesis that the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is involved in mediating the toll-like receptor 4-dependent effects on the liver in the onset of fructose-induced steatosis, wild-type and iNOS knockout (iNOS(-/-)) mice were either fed tap water or 30% fructose solution for 8 weeks. Chronic consumption of 30% fructose solution led to a significant increase in hepatic steatosis and inflammation as well as plasma alanine-aminotransferase levels in wild-type mice. This effect of fructose feeding was markedly attenuated in iNOS(-/-) mice. Hepatic lipidperoxidation, concentration of phospho-IκB, nuclear factor κB activity, and tumor necrosis factor-α mRNA level were significantly increased in fructose-fed wild-type mice, whereas in livers of fructose-fed iNOS(-/-) mice, lipidperoxidation, phospho-IκB, nuclear factor κB activity, and tumor necrosis factor-α expression were almost at the level of controls. However, portal endotoxin levels and hepatic myeloid differentiation factor 88 expression were significantly higher in both fructose-fed groups compared to controls. Taken together, these data suggest that (i) the formation of reactive oxygen species in liver is a key factor in the onset of fatty liver and (ii) iNOS is involved in mediating the endotoxin/toll-like receptor 4-dependent effects in the development of fructose-induced fatty liver.
