Zusammenfassung

Aims: Intestinal bacterial overgrowth and increased intestinal permeability are pathophysiological features of non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Further, bacterial endotoxins have been shown to promote NASH progression. Application of dextran sulphate sodium (DSS) is an established model to induce acute colitis in mice characterized by damage of the intestinal barrier and elevated serum endotoxin levels. The aim of this study was to investigate if application of DSS aggravates experimental NASH. Methods and Results: Male C57bl/6 mice (n=6) were randomly allocated into four experimental groups receiving ether…
