Core Tip |
Huangqin decoction (HQD) has substantial therapeutic effects in liver diseases. We previously showed that HQD mitigates hepatic inflammation in a rat model of High-fat diet (HFD)-induced Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by inhibiting the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway. Here, we investigated the effects of HQD on lipid metabolism disorders and insulin resistance in NAFLD. Our results demonstrated that HQD effectively antagonizes hepatocyte steatosis and insulin resistance in HFD-fed rats and palmitic acid-challenged HepG2 cells by triggering Sirt1/NF-κB pathway-modulated lipogenesis and inflammation. These data will significantly promote the clinical application of HQD in the treatment of NAFLD. |
