-
Animal Model:Male Ldlr-/-.Leiden mice (high-fat diet, HFD)[1]
-
Dosage:5, 15, or 30 mg/kg
-
Administration:Food intake; daily for 24 weeks
-
Result:Significantly increased the total amount of bile acid in feces. Significantly attenuated the HFD-induced increase in hepatocyte hypertrophy, hepatic triglyceride and cholesteryl ester levels, and mesenteric white adipose tissue deposition at the highest dose. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (NAS) was significantly lower in volixibat-treated mice than in the HFD controls.
