Protective Effects of White Button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) against Hepatic Steatosis in Ovariectomized Mice as a Model of Postmenopausal Women

Abstract: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) includes various hepatic pathologies ranging from hepatic steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), fibrosis and cirrhosis. Estrogen provides a protective effect on the development of NAFLD in women. Therefore, postmenopausal women have a higher risk of developing NAFLD. Hepatic steatosis is an early stage of fatty liver disease. Steatosis can develop to the aggressive stages (nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, fibrosis and cirrhosis). Currently, there is no specifi… Show more

“…Triglyceride accumulation in the liver caused by lifestyle-related diseases can result in more serious diseases. In this line, administration of A. bisporus prevents hepatic steatosis in mice, 32 and Panellus serotinus ameliorates nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in obese, diabetic mice. 33,34 Thus, PDF could be of interest to develop new therapeutic approaches preventing hepatic triglyceride accumulation.…”

“…The decreased estradiol levels at D21 and D24, compared with D15 and D18, of differentiation is possibly the result of the degradation of estradiol in the spent media by factors or enzymes from the prolonged in vitro differentiation system. We next investigated whether the mixture of these ovariancell-like cells can produce estradiol following transplantation into ovariectomized mice, a widely used postmenopausal model [25,26]. After induced differentiation and culture with Matrigel, these ovarian-cell-like cells were transplanted (in some of the experiments, cells were labeled with PKH26 before transplantation) into ovariectomized mice.…”
