Metabolomic analysis shows differential hepatic effects of T2 and T3 in rats after short-term feeding with high fat diet

Abstract Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major health problem worldwide, and is often associated with lipotoxic injury, defective mitochondrial function, and insulin resistance. Thyroid hormones (THs) are important regulators of hepatic lipid metabolism. Among the THs, diiodothyronine...
