Marker NAFL NASH References
Lipid peroxidation
 MDA NS + (4)
 MDA + + (120)
 4-HNE + + + (186)
 4-HNE-protein adducts ND + (187)
Protein oxidation
 Protein carbonyls + NS (209)

 Mitochondrial GSH ND (187)
 SOD activity (209)
 Catalase activity NS − − (209)
 Glutathione peroxidase activity NS NS (209)
 Total antioxidative capacity measured as μmol uric acid equivalent − − − − (4)
 Ferritin + + (120)

NS indicates no significant difference versus control, + indicates a significant increase versus control, + + indicates a significant increase versus control and NAFL, − indicates a significant decrease versus control, and − − indicates a significant decrease versus control and NAFL. ND indicates that no data were obtained in the respective study.

4-HNE, 4-hydroxynonenal; GSH, reduced glutathione; MDA, malondialdehyde; NAFL, non-alcoholic fatty liver; NASH, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis; SOD, superoxide dismutase.
