0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE With consumption of HFHS diet, FGF21 deficient mice (FGF21 KO) develop excess fatty liver within 16 weeks. 29753678 2018
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 Therapeutic disease CTD_human SIRT1-mediated activation of FGF21 prevents liver steatosis caused by fasting. 24184811 2014
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE <b>Results:</b> FGF-21 levels were significantly higher in subjects with high-grade liver steatosis (<i>P</i> < 0.001). 31750276 2019
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Chronic treatment with recombinant FGF21 reduces serum and hepatic triglyceride levels and ameliorates fatty liver in obese mice, through the suppression of the lipogenic gene, Srebp-1. 28337713 2017
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In human liver tissues, FGF21 mRNA expression increased with the degree of steatosis. 20675007 2010
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE There was a tendency towards higher levels of hepatic FGF21 mRNA in patients with lobular inflammation and fibrosis and towards lower levels in the case of hepatocyte ballooning and steatosis. 28820393 2017
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Importantly, estrogen replacement restored hepatic FGF21 levels and reduced hepatic steatosis in HFFD-fed OVX rats. 28559436 2017
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Forced FGF21 expression in partial hepatectomized hPPARα(PAC) reduced hepatic steatosis, prevented focal necrosis, and restored liver mass. 25991671 2015
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE FGF21 decreases in association with reductions in liver fat, GGT, and FIB4, suggesting that FGF21 is upregulated in the context of steatosis and steatohepatitis and is reduced when these conditions improve. 29031905 2017
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Both hepatic PCK1 and plasma FGF21 correlated strongly and inversely with hepatic TG content, suggesting a key role for PCK1 and increased gluconeogenesis in resolving steatosis with a high-protein diet, with FGF21 expression reflecting declining cell stress. 28457799 2017
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE PsTag600-FGF21 dose-dependently reduced body weight, blood glucose, and insulin and lipid levels and reversed hepatic steatosis. 29859019 2018
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Collectively, the results of the present study revealed a new mechanism underlying the regulation of hepatic ER stress and FGF21 expression induced by EPO; thus, EPO may be considered as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of fatty liver and obesity. 31173165 2019
CUI: C2711227
Disease: Steatohepatitis
Steatohepatitis
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Their body weight, glucose-lipid metabolism, inflammation indices, hepatic steatosis and fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) levels were measured. 30355361 2018
