Methods: Four-month-old Lee-Sung minipigs were randomly assigned to two groups: control diet (C) and Western diet (W), for a 5-month experimental period. Results: Feeding a Western diet produced a body composition with more fat, less lean and a greater liver weight. Compared with C pigs, W pigs also exhibited an elevated level of plasma insulin and free fatty acid. The W pigs displayed glucose intolerance, lower circulation antioxidant capacity and greater hepatic oxidative stress. Furthermore, pig fed the W diets had increased collagen accumulation in the liver and elevated systemic inflammation [tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin (IL)-6]. Compared with C pigs, W pigs had higher hepatic ER stress-related protein expression of GRP94, CHOP and caspase-12. The W pigs also had greater hepatic autophagy-related protein expression of p62 and LC3II. In an obesity antibody array analysis, W pigs had higher type 2 diabetes mellitus- (insulin-like growth factor 1, osteoprotegerin and resistin), atherosclerosis- (vascular endothelial growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor-AA and plasminogen activator inhibitor-I) and inflammation- [IL-1, macrophage-stimulating protein alpha, X-linked ectodermal dysplasia receptor and serum amyloid A (SAA)] related protein expressions. In addition, W pigs had greater plasma SAA concentration than C pigs and plasma SAA level was highly associated with IL-6. Conclusions: We successfully established a NASH pig model, and our findings suggested an association of NASH with ER stress and autophagy. The SAA has potential as a novel plasma biomarker for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease pigs. ? 2015 Elsevier Inc. |
