Correction of liver steatosis by a hydrophobic iminosugar modulating glycosphingolipids metabolism.

Correction of liver steatosis by a hydrophobic iminosugar modulating glycosphingolipids metabolism.

The iminosugar N-(5'-adamantane-1'-yl-methoxy)-pentyl-1-deoxynoijirimycin (AMP-DNM), an inhibitor of glycosphingolipid (GSL) biosynthesis is known to ameliorate diabetes, insulin sensitivity and to prevent liver steatosis in ob/ob mice. Thus far the effect of GSL synthesis inhibition on pr...
