Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression of integrin αvβ3 in cultured hepatocytes. Human LO2 hepatocytes were cultured with the medium containing 100 μmol/L palmitate acid and 200 μmol/L oleic acid (FFA) for 24 hours, and the cells cultured in the medium without FFA served as the control. A: Representative micrographs of the control and FFA-cultured hepatocytes after stained with Oil-Red O. Images were taken at original magnification (200 ×), scale bars = 20 μm; B and C: Representative fluorescent images of the control (B) and FFA-cultured (C) hepatocytes after separately stained with integrin αv and β3 subunits antibody (green color) and counterstained with albumin antibody (red color). 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole was used for nuclei staining. The merged images show the yellow color area by overlaying images of the counterstaining. Images were taken at original magnification (400 ×), scale bars = 100 μm; D: Comparison of the message RNA levels of integrin αv and β3 subunits in the control and FFA-cultured hepatocytes. The message RNA levels of integrin αv and β3 subunit were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis; E and F: Comparison of the protein amounts of integrin αv and β3 subunits in the control and FFA-cultured hepatocytes. The protein amounts of integrin αv and β3 subunits were analyzed by western-blot assay, and β-Tublin was used as the reference. All experiments were undertaken in triplicates. In all panels, data are expressed in means ± SD. FFA: Oleic acid; DAPI: 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole.

Article Snippet: Secondly, after being fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 0.1% Triton X-100 and 0.1 mg/mL RNase A when appropriate, the control and FFA-cultured hepatocytes were incubated with primary antibodies against integrin αv subunit (1:1000, Abmart, T56887) or integrin β3 subunit (1:1000, Abmart, M015908), and albumin (1:1000, Servicebio, GB122080) at 4 °C overnight.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression of integrin αvβ3 in livers of rabbits with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was induced in rabbits by high-fat diet (HFD) for 2, 6, and 8 months (referred to as HFD-2M, 6M and 8M), and rabbits fed with regular diet for 8 months served as the control group ( n = 6 per group). A: Representative micrographs of hepatic histology stained with hematoxylin-eosin staining (200 ×), Sirius red (100 ×), and immunohistochemistry for integrin β3 subunit (400 ×). In immunohistochemistry staining images, the brown areas indicated integrin β3 subunit positive staining, scale bars = 50 μm; B: Comparison of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease activity score in the control and HFD-fed rabbits; C: Comparison of the percentage of integrin β3 subunit positive-staining area in liver sections of the control and HFD-fed rabbits. For semi-quantitative analysis of hepatic integrin αvβ3 expression level, 10 fields were randomly selected and recorded from each section stained with immunohistochemistry for integrin β3 subunit. Then integrin β3 subunit positive-staining area was measured, and the percentages of the positive-staining area in liver sections were compared. In all panels, data are expressed in means ± SD. IHC: Immunohistochemistry; HE: Hematoxylin-eosin staining; CTRL: Normal control group; M: Month; NS: Not significant; NAFLD: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was induced in rats by high-fat high-carbohydrate diet (HFCD) for 2, 4, and 6 months (referred to as HFCD-2M, 4M and 6M), and rats fed with regular diet for 6 months served as the control group ( n = 6 per group).
