The C57BL\/6N mice were fed either methionine- and choline-sufficient (MCS) diet ( n\u00a0=\u00a010) or a methionine- and choline-deficient (MCD) diet ( n\u00a0=\u00a050) for 4\u00a0weeks, and then they were treated orally with CGX (100 or 200\u00a0mg\/kg), ursodeoxycholic acid (80\u00a0mg\/kg, as a positive control), or distilled water (DW, MCS diet group, and MCD diet group) for the final 2\u00a0weeks (once per day). The MCD diet induced severe hepatic injury with the typical features of hepatosteatosis in both serum and hepatic tissues. CGX treatment significantly attenuated these alterations in the serum levels including triglyceride (TG), aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and total bilirubin. Moreover, CGX also efficiently prevented from the hepatic TG accumulation in the hepatic tissue, evidenced by histopathological findings, compared with the MCD diet. In addition, CGX treatment significantly ameliorated the excessive oxidative stress and antioxidant markers in the serum as well as the hepatic levels of reactive oxygen species, the levels of malondialdehyde, the protein carbonyl, and total antioxidant capacity, and the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase. In conclusion, our results indicate the experimental relevance of CGX for potential clinical application in patients with hepatosteatotic disorders and a possible mechanism related to its antioxidant properties.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0960327113485253","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,22]],"date-time":"2013-08-22T23:49:17Z","timestamp":1377215357000},"page":"1258-1269","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Chunggan
