摘要
Melosira nummuloides is a microalga with a nutritionally favorable polyunsaturated fatty acid profile. In the present study, M. nummuloides ethanol extract (MNE) was administered to chronic-binge alcohol-fed mice and alcohol-treated HepG2 cells, and its hepatoprotective effects and underlying mechanisms were investigated. MNE administration reduced triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (T-CHO), and liver injury markers, including aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT), in the serum of chronic-binge alcohol-fed mice. However, MNE administration increased the levels of phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (P-AMPK/AMPK) and PPARα, which was accompanied by a decrease in SREBP-1; this indicates that MNE can inhibit adipogenesis and improve fatty acid oxidation. Moreover, MNE administration upregulated the expression of antioxidant enzymes, including SOD, NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1, and GPX, and ameliorated alcohol-induced inflammation by repressing the Akt/NFκB/COX-2 pathway. Metabolomic analysis revealed that MNE treatment modulated many lipid metabolites in alcohol-treated HepG2 cells. Our study findings provide evidence for the efficacy and mechanisms of MNE in ameliorating alcohol-induced liver injury.
