NUCB2 and steatosis: The results showed that RES could reverse nesfatin-1-related impairment of liver function and glucolipid metabolism, as indicated by the decreased plasma concentrations of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin (TBIL), direct bilirubin (DBIL), indirect bilirubin (IBIL), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), glucose, insulin, and nesfatin-1; increase the plasma level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C); and reduce hepatocyte steatosis in NAFLD rats.
