Description
Summary:In the present authors’ previous article in J Diabetes Investig, the pathogenesis of NAFLD from the perspective of this pathway was discussed 11. [...]in the following, the cause of and measures against ALD from the viewpoint of AR activity in the liver are considered. ADP, adenosine diphosphate; AMP, adenosine monophosphate; AMPK, adenosine monophosphate‐activated protein kinase; ATP, adenosine triphosphate; CYP2E1, cytochrome P450E1; FK, fructose kinase; GR, glutathione reductase; GSH, reduced glutathione; GSSG, glutathione disulfide; IMP, inosine monophosphate; NAD, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide; NADH, reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide; NADP, reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate; NADPH, reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate; NO, nitric oxide; NOx, reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidase; ROS, reactive oxygen species; SDH, sorbitol dehydrogenase; ROS, reactive oxygen species; SDH, sorbitol dehydrogenase; TCA, tricarboxylic acid; XO, xanthine oxidase. Furthermore, the pharmacological inhibition of AR in mice prevented alcohol‐induced hepatic steatosis, apoptosis and liver injury. [...]their study provides us a new perspective for the future from the viewpoints of both the mechanisms of and medicines for alcohol‐induced liver injury. [...]the results of their research are briefly introduced in the present article.
