From: Female Mice Are More Susceptible to Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Sex-Specific Regulation of the Hepatic AMP-Activated Protein Kinase-Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 1 Cascade, but Not the Hepatic Endotoxin Response

Figure 1

Sex differences in hepatic lipid accumulation in mice with steatosis induced by feeding a 30% fructose solution. (A) Representative photomicrographs of hematoxylin and eosin staining as well as oil red O staining of liver sections (400Ɨ). (Bā€“D) Evaluation of liver histology using the semiquantitative ā€œNonalcoholic steatohepatitis Clinical Research Network system for scoring activity and fibrosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver diseaseā€ (modified from (15)) (16). Data are shown as means Ā± SEM (n = 6). Cā€”water (control); Fā€”30% fructose solution; *p < 0.05 compared with respective water-fed control mice; **p < 0.01 compared with respective water-fed control mice.
