Levels of LIGHT (homologous to lymphotoxin, exhibits inducible expression, and competes with HSV glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM), a receptor expressed by T lymphocytes), HVEM, and lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR) in liver biopsies from patients and controls. mRNA levels of (a) LIGHT and its corresponding receptors, (b) HVEM and (c) LTβR, in liver biopsies from control subjects (n=7), patients with simple steatosis (n=8), and patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) (n=6). mRNA levels were quantified by real-time reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR), in relation to the control gene GAPDH (glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase). Data are given as mean±s.e.m. *P<0.05 vs. control subjects.
