Although the liver inflammation our moderate ethanol study was less dramatic than what is seen in other more severe models of alcoholic liver disease, utilizing very high levels of ethanol, in aged mice, the more moderate ethanol exposure increased multiple inflammatory parameters, including a 4.6-fold increase in hepatic Il1b expression (Fig. 3C) along with a 7.5-fold increase in hepatic neutrophils (Fig. 4C). The gene discussed is IL1B; the disease is alcoholic liver diseases.
