In vitro study | Acetoacetic acid (0.6, 2.4, 4.8 mM) increases malondialdehyde (MDA) content in high-dose group (GH) group, decreases mRNA expression of Mn SOD, Cu/Zn SOD, and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in all groups, lowers catalase (CAT) mRNA expression in medial-dose group (GM), and GH groups. In addition, Acetoacetic acid down-regulates the mRNA expression of apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100), apolipoprotein E (ApoE), and low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). Thus, VLDL assembly is decreased andtriglyceride (TG) accumulation is increased in these bovine hepatocytes. |
