| Abstract | Nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) is increasingly recognized as one of the most common causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), as the alternative and complementary medicine, may provide some profound health benefit. “Jiang-Zhi” Granule (JZG) was composed based on TCM pathogenesis of NAFL: the retention of inner dampness, heat and blood stasis. This study investigated effects of JZG on liver X receptor-α (LXRα)/sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) pathway in high-fat-diet-(HFD-)induced hepatic steatosis, as well as in free-fatty-acid-(FFA-)and T0901317-treated HepG2 cells. The results showed that JZG had an antisteatotic effect on HFD-fed rats. JZG decreased the activation of SREBP-1c through inhibiting LXRα-mediated SREBP-1c transcription, as well as through inhibiting the maturation of SREBP-1c independent of LXRα. These findings may provide molecular evidence for the use of JZG as a promising therapeutic option for NAFL and support us to continue JZG treatment in NAFL. For JZG treatment to be widely accepted, a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled, phase III trial is ongoing. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
