The therapeutic effect of diisopropyl 1,3-dithiol-2-ylidenemalonate (NKK-105) on the fatty liver induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) was studied. The recovery from elevated liver triglyceride levels induced by CCl4 required over 20 days in 35 week-old rats, but 14 days in 6 week-old rats. This indicates that 35 week-old rats are useful for studying the therapeutic effect of NKK-105 on fatty liver. In rats with CCl4-induced fatty liver, NKK-105 lowered the hepatic triglyceride level…

The protective effect of DT827A on a liver injury is due neither to its influence on liver GSH levels nor inhibition of the metabolic activation of CCl4, but a possible mechanism of action for theDT827 series of compounds to indicate an antioxidative effect would be brought about by the role of the compounds as a radical scavenger as well as its reductive effect.

The results suggest that the mode of action by which serum cholesterol is normalized in rats with fatty liver is probably due to a stimulative effect of malotilate on hepatic cholesterol synthesis and cholesterol secretion from the liver.

The results are interpreted as further evidence that the fatty liver induced by CCl, is due to a block in the release of hepatic triglycerides to the plasma, the primary lesion being, very probably, inhibition of the synthesis of the protein moiety of serum lipoproteins.

The knowledge that hepatic triglyceride secretion involves a dual mechanism has provided a powerful new guide for the analysis of mechanisms underlying fatty liver disease, and a central requirement of this hypothesis must be that if over supply of fatty acids is to be invoked as a significant factor in the pathogenesis of fatty liver, then the oversupply must be of sufficient magnitude and duration.

The rate of synthesis of hepatic triglyceride derived directly from unesterified fatty acid of serum was calculated by using the flux rate of unesterify fatty acid in serum, the fractional hepatic uptake of this flux, and the percentage of liver fatty acid esterified to triglyceride to determine quantitatively how much of the developing fatty liver is attributable to increased uptake of unestersfied fatty acids of serum.
