Popis: | Ipragliflozin is a selective sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor that increases urinary glucose excretion by inhibiting renal glucose reabsorption and thereby causes a subsequent antihyperglycemic effect. As nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), is closely linked to metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes, we investigated the effect of ipragliflozin on NAFLD in rats fed a choline-deficient l-amino acid-defined (CDAA) diet. Five weeks after starting the CDAA diet, rats exhibited hepatic triglyceride (TG) accumulation, fibrosis, and mild inflammation. Repeated oral administration of ipragliflozin (3mg/g, once daily for 5 weeks) prevented both hepatic TG accumulation (188 vs.290 mg/g tissue vehicle-treated group; P |
