Effect of marginal copper deficiency and low fructose feeding on liver injury. (a) Plasma ALT and AST level. (b) Representative photomicrographs of TUNEL staining of liver section (400×). (c) Plasma MCP-1. Data represent means ± SD (n=5–10). *p<0.05; #, interaction between copper and fructose is significant (p<0.05). A, adequate copper diet; M, marginal copper deficient diet; AF, adequate copper diet+3% fructose drinking; MF, marginal copper deficient diet+3% fructose drinking. ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; TUNEL, Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase Biotin-dUTP Nick End Labeling; MCP-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1.
