ABSTRACT
This research is to find out if a high fat high sugar diet could affect the health of mice based on the level of energy products (ATP, ADP, AMP, NAD, NADH, NADP, NADPH, GSH, and GSSG) in the liver. In this research, I use HPLC to collect data for the level of each of the nine energy products. I used the PCA extraction method to extract liver tissues. In addition, I also used Lowry protein assay for the PCA extracts to compare to the results from HPLC.

Quantification of liver fat
Fat accumulation in the liver causes metabolic diseases such as obesity, hypertension, diabetes or dyslipidemia by affecting insulin resistance, and increasing the risk of cardiac complications and cardiovascular disease mortality. Fatty liver diseases ...
Mitochondrial DNA copy number and citrate synthase activity in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease induced in rats by a high-fat plus fructose diet fortified or not with dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)
BIOCOMPUCHEM'09: Proceedings of the 3rd WSEAS International Conference on Computational ChemistryThe mitochondrial DNA copy number and the citrate synthase activity have been studied in rat model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease induced by a high-fat plus fructose (HF-F) diet which mimics a typical unhealthy Western diet. Rats treated by adding ...
