Sulfated polysaccharides from Enteromorpha prolifera suppress SREBP-2 and HMG-CoA reductase expression and attenuate non-alcoholic fatty liver disease induced by a high-fat diet

Enteromorpha prolifera polysaccharides (EP) suppressed SREBP-2 and regulates expression of HMG-CoA reductase. Therefore, EP may be a functional food that can prevent nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
