Histological scores using the NAFLD activity score (NAS) on mice liver samples.

	MF	HF	HFA
Steatosis (score 0–3)	0	3	2.0 ± 0.6*
Lobular inflammation (score 0–3)	0	2.4 ± 0.5	0.6 ± 0.5*
NAS (score 0–8)	0	5.4 ± 0.5	2.6 ± 0.8*

NAS was scored as previously reported^33,34. Data are represented as mean ± SD.

*P < 0.05, significant difference vs. HF fed mice. (n = 6 per group).
