a Schematic diagram of the animal study. NASH was induced with a MCD diet for 8 weeks. Ad.CON, control adenovirus + MCD diet; Ad.PGRN, PGRN-expressing adenovirus + MCD diet; TA, tibialis anterior. b Serum PGRN levels. c Final body, liver, and spleen weights of Ad.CON and Ad.PGRN mice. d Serum ALT and AST levels. e Liver sections were stained with H&E and Sirius Red. Scale bar: 200 μm. f Quantification of steatosis, inflammatory foci, and Sirius Red staining. Graphs show the mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 versus the corresponding control, as shown
