Effects of resveratrol in experimental and clinical non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Figure 1 Proposed resveratrol effects on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease pathogenesis, AMP-activated protein kinase and silent information regulation-2 homolog 1 dependent and non-dependent mechanisms. Evidence of in vivo effect demonstrated especially a RSV-mediated inhibition of adipose tissue lipolysis, inhibition of hepatic de novo lipogenesis and an increase in FA β-oxidation. ACC: Acetyl-CoA carboxylase; CPT-1: Carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1; FAS: Fatty acid synthase; FFA: Free fatty acids; NAFLD: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; PGC-1α: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 α; PPARγ/α: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ/α; ROS: Reactive oxygen species; SREBP-1c: Sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c; TG: Triglyceride; TGF-1β: Tumor growth factor 1β.
