To investigate the effect of Fufang Zhenzhu Tiaozhi formula( FZT) in a long-term high-fat diet-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease( NAFLD) mouse model and to study the regulation of hepatic endoplasmic reticulum stress( ERS). Mice model with NAFLD was established by feeding purified high-fat diet,and treated with FZT at the same time. After treatment with FZT for 20 weeks, the plasma total cholesterol( TC),hepatic TG, triglyceride( TG) level,liver tissue pathology morphology and expression of lipid metabolism, ERS related genes were observed,and measured the effect of FZT on NAFLD in mice. Compared with normal control group,plasma and hepatic TC,TG level were significantly increased in model group( P < 0. 05); compared with model group,the plasma and hepatic TC,TG level were significantly lower in FZT high and low-dose group( P < 0. 05); XBP-1,PERK and SREBP-1c mRNA expression of liver tissue were significantly lower( P < 0. 05). FZT can significantly alleviate NAFLD in mice which induced by a long-term high-fat diet, reduction of the hepatic ERS activity may be one of its mechanisms alleviate NAFLD.
