Abstract

To elucidate the role of systemic inflammation in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Serum samples in 47 patients with histologically verified NAFLD (22 with simple steatosis and 25 with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis [NASH]), and in 30 age-, sex- and ethnicity-matched healthy controls, were assessed for (i) general markers of inflammation (C-reactive protein [CRP], tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-alpha, and interleukin [IL]-6), (ii) chemokines (CC-chemokine ligand [CCL] 2/monocyte chemoattractant protein [MCP]-1, CCL19 and CCL21), (iii) adipocytokines related to insulin resistance and inflammation (adiponectin and leptin) and (iv) a marker of oxidative stress (8-isoprostane-F2alpha). Serum levels of several inflammatory cytokines were increased in NAFLD as compared to controls, and IL-6 (P=0.017), CCL2/MCP-1 (P=0.008) and CCL19 (P=0.001), but not CRP (P=0.199), remained elevated also after correction for sex, body mass index (BMI) and age. Comparing NASH with simple steatosis, levels of TNF-alpha (P=0.024) and CCL2/MCP-1 (P=0.012) were elevated and adiponectin (in women) (P=0.001) were decreased also after adjustment for sex, BMI and presence of the metabolic syndrome. Our results indicate that patients with NAFLD are charact...Continue Reading
