RESUMO

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the second major chronic liver disease world-wide and growing. Current medical treatment of NAFLD is not effective, and there is an urgent need to find new effective drugs. Liraglutide is now the first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with promise, according to recent reports, to mitigate the fatty degeneration of the liver. The investigators of the current study discern if liraglutide reduces non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) induced by a high-fat diet using mice via modulating Kupffer cells M2 polarization in the liver. The mice underwent four weeks of intraperitoneal injections of liraglutide (0.6 mg/kg body weight). In the NAFLD model used in this study, the liver index, the body weight, and the serum levels of ALT, AST, total cholesterol, and triglycerides were meaningfully improved. In sections using H&E and Oil Red O staining, hepatic steatosis was significantly improved. Liraglutide decreased liver inflammation and the inflammatory properties of Kupffer cells in the NAFLD mouse model and there was a higher ratio of M2/M1 Kupffer cells. In vitro studies found that Liraglutide treatment modulates Kupffer cells to M2-like activation via the cAMP-PKA-STAT3 signaling pathway. The perilous effects of a high-fat diet were alleviated by liraglutide, including hepatic steatosis, by modulating Kupffer cells M2 polarization via the cAMP-PKA-STAT3 signaling pathway. Liraglutide can indeed reverse the negative effects of NAFLD.
