The invention discloses application of dehydrocostus
lactone and a
medicine for treating
steatohepatitis, relates to the technical field of biological medicines, and solves the problems that in the prior art, the application scene of the dehydrocostus
lactone is limited, and the application of the dehydrocostus
lactone in a complex
pathological environment of metabolic dysfunction related
steatohepatitis has a technical blank. Dehydrocostus lactone can reduce
lipid accumulation,
inflammation and
fibrosis in liver cells; the weight,
liver weight, serum
triglyceride content, serum
total cholesterol content and
insulin resistance level of animals with
steatohepatitis are reduced; the content of serum glutamic oxalacetic
transaminase, glutamic-pyruvic
transaminase,
tumor necrosis factor alpha,
interleukin 1beta,
malondialdehyde and bivalent
ferrous ions is reduced, and the content of serum
glutathione is increased; the compound can regulate and control
lipid metabolism and mitochondrial
energy metabolism pathways, reprograms fatty degeneration liver
cell energy metabolism phenotypes, and is applied to preparation of drugs for treating steatohepatitis,
ferroptosis inhibitors and glutamic oxalacetic
transaminase and / or glutamic-pyruvic transaminase inhibitors.
