Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine after 20 weeks on a high-fat diet, Nnt-/- mice exhibit a higher prevalence of steatohepatitis and content of liver triglycerides compared to Nnt+/+ mice on an identical diet. Under a a high-fat diet, the aggravated non-alcoholic fatty liver disease phenotype in the Nnt-/- mice is accompanied by an increased H2O2 release rate from mitochondria, decreased aconitase activity and higher susceptibility to Ca2+-induced mitochondrial permeability transition. A high-fat diet leads to the phosphorylation (inhibition) of pyruvate dehydrogenase and markedly reduces the ability of liver mitochondria to remove peroxide in Nnt-/- mice. Compared to mice that are chow-fed, a high-fat diet does not impair peroxide removal nor elicit redox imbalance in mitochondria from Nnt+/+ mice Mus musculus
