Capillin protects against non-alcoholic steatohepatitis through suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome activation and oxidative stress

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an extreme form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The present study concentrated on the role of Capillin, a polyacetylene compound isolated from Artemisia capillaris Thunb., in NASH development.Palmitic acid (PA) was treated with FL83B hepatocytes, and high-fat diet was given to mouse to construct the NASH model in vivo. The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) method,...
