NAFLD

Natural product therapy for Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD): Berberine, isolated from Berberis vulgais, among others, promotes degradation of HMGCR, decreases the levels of triglycerides, free cholesterol, and total cholesterol and prevents the progression of Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD via down regulation of its target gene, 26/September/2017, 6.05 am

Significance of the study: Given that: (1) 15-30% of Western populations suffer from Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), while 6-25% of Asian populations suffer from it; (2) 75 to […]
