Abstract | BACKGROUND & AIMS: METHODS: RESULTS: More severe alcoholic fatty liver disease was developed in Cyp2a5-/- mice than in Cyp2a5+/+ mice. Basal FGF21 levels were higher in Cyp2a5-/- mice than in Cyp2a5+/+ mice, but ethanol did not further increase the elevated FGF21 levels in Cyp2a5-/- mice while FGF21 was induced by ethanol in Cyp2a5+/+ mice. Basal levels of serum FGF21 were lower in Pparα-/- mice than in Pparα+/+ mice; ethanol induced FGF21 in Pparα+/+ mice but not in Pparα-/- mice, whereas ethanol induced hypertriglyceridemia in Pparα-/- mice but not in Pparα+/+ mice. Administration of recombinant FGF21 normalized serum FGF21 and triglyceride in Pparα-/- mice. Alcoholic fatty liver was enhanced in liver-specific Fgf21 knockout mice. Pparα and Cyp2a5 double knockout (Pparα-/-/Cyp2a5-/-) mice developed more severe alcoholic fatty liver than Pparα+/+/Cyp2a5-/- mice. CONCLUSIONS:
