Abstrakt: Elucidation of the mechanisms of the development of liver steatosis, which are at the heart of the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), will allow the introduction of new effective treatment methods into medical practice, as well as the development of new measures for the correction of this disease and accompanying pathologies. The purpose of the research is to establish the enzymatic activity of the complexes of the electron transport chain of the mitochondrial membrane of rat hepatocytes and to evaluate the corrective effect of the multiprobiotic "Symbiter acidophilic" concentrated or nanocrystalline cerium dioxide on the formation of steatohepatosis induced by neonatal sodium glutamate administration. The experiments were carried out on 50 white non-linear male rats; the direction included the study of the mechanisms of the development of steatohepatosis in 4-month-old rats, which were administered monosodium glutamate in the neonatal period, and the study of the functional state of the liver in rats after the neonatal administration of monosodium glutamate against the background of periodic administration of a multiprobiotic or nanocrystalline dioxide cerium. It was established that neonatal administration of monosodium glutamate causes metabolic changes in 4-month-old rats, manifested in the disproportionate accumulation of fat with the development of visceral obesity without hyperphagia, dyslipidemia, and steatohepatosis. In 4-month-old rats, after neonatal administration of sodium glutamate, the development of steatohepatosis was accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction, which was manifested by changes in the lipid composition of the inner membrane of hepatocyte mitochondria with an increase in oxidized products and a change in the enzymatic activity of all complexes of the respiratory chain. In rats injected with monosodium glutamate in the neonatal period, periodic use of the multiprobiotic "Symbiter acidophilic" concentrated or nanocrystalline cerium dioxide significantly restored the functional state of the liver, reduced the manifestations of oxidative stress and prevented the development of steatohepatosis, which indicates the antioxidant effect of these drugs and the possibility of their use for prevention of steatohepatosis.
