Title: Protective effect of Hua Tan Qu Shi decoction against liver injury in rats with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is currently a worldwide health problem. None of the existing treatment medications had got a satisfactory effect. Hua Tan Qu Shi (HTQS) decoction is a Chinese herbal formula, which has been used clinically to treat NAFLD for years. However, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. METHODS: High-fat diet (HFD) induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease rats treated with or without HTQS decoction by gavage for 10 weeks and examined by serology, 24-h albuminuria, histology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular analyses.
