Dietary Blueberry and Bifidobacteria Attenuate Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Rats by Affecting SIRT1-Mediated Signaling Pathway

الملخص EN

NAFLD model rats were established and divided into NAFLD model (MG group), SIRT1 RNAi (SI group), blueberry juice (BJ group), blueberry juice + bifidobacteria (BJB group), blueberry juice + SIRT1 RNAi (BJSI group), and blueberry juice + bifidobacteria + SIRT1 RNAi groups (BJBSI group).

A group with normal rats was a control group (CG).

BJB group ameliorated NAFLD, which was better than BJ group (P<0.05).

The lipid accumulation was lower in CG, BJ, and BJB groups than that in MG, SI, BJSI, and BJBSI groups (P<0.05).

The levels of SIRT1 and PPAR-α were higher in CG, BJ, and BJB groups than those in MG, SI, BJSI, and BJBSI groups (P<0.05).

The levels of SREBP-1c were lower in CG, BJ, and BJB groups than those in MG, SI, BJSI, and BJBSI groups (P<0.05).

The biochemical indexes SOD, GSH, and HDL-c were improved from CG to BJB group (P<0.05).

Inversely, the levels of AST and ALT, TG, TC, LDL-c, and MDA were decreased from CG to BJB group (P<0.05).

These changes enhance antioxidative capability and biochemical index of rats.

Blueberry juice and bifidobacteria improve NAFLD by activating SIRTI-mediating signaling pathway.
