Abstract
Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is one of the growing epidemics of the globe. This study was aimed to evaluate the anti-NAFLD effect of selected IAN derivatives using in silico, in vitro and in vivo models. In silico tools viz., DataWarrior, SwissADME and Gaussian 09 were used to predict the pharmacokinetic properties and electronic distribution patterns of the derivatives; docking analysis was done with Autodock against PPARα. Toxicities of the derivatives were assessed in HepG2 cells using MTT assay. Anti-NAFLD efficacies of the derivatives were assessed in free fatty acid induced steatotic HepG2 cells. In vivo anti-NAFLD effect of active isoandrographolide (IAN) derivative, 19-propionyl isoandrographolide (IAN-19P) was assessed in High Fat Diet fed rats. In silico and in vitro studies indicated that IAN-19P showed improved drug-likeness and drug score. The toxicity of IAN-19P to HepG2 cells was comparatively less than IAN and other derivatives. In free fatty acid induced steatotic HepG2 cells, treatment with IAN-19P significantly lowered intracellular triglyceride content and leakage of LDH and transaminases. Treating High Fat Diet fed animals with IAN-19P significantly lowered plasma lipids, transaminases, LDH and GGT levels. The treatment with IAN-19P upregulated the expressions of PPARα and CPT-1. IAN-19P did not produce any noticeable adverse effect till 2 g/kg concentration in acute and 250 mg/kg concentration in subacute toxicity studies. This study indicated the beneficial effect of IAN-19P for the treatment of NAFLD; however robust investigations are needed to establish the potential of IAN-19P to treat NAFLD.

Abstract
The Drug-induced liver injury is one of the common unfavourable impacts, which seriously affects any drug therapy. This study documented the hepatoprotective efficacy of lawsone, the major bioactive naphthoquinone present in Lawsonia inermis L. (Lythraceae) using in vitro and in vivo models. Lawsone was isolated from the leaves of L. inermis and its structure was confirmed using spectroscopic data. In-vitro antioxidant effect of lawsone was evaluated using ABTS assay. Hepatoprotective effect of lawsone was determined with RIF-INH treated HepG2 cells and Wistar rats. Administration of RIF-INH reduced the viability of the HepG2 cells and the treatment with lawsone significantly restored the viability of the cells even at lower concentration (7.5 μM). The other parameters such as the leakage of transaminases and MDA levels were also significantly reduced by the treatment with lawsone. Oral administration of lawsone to the animals did not show any toxicity up to 2 g/kg b.w. concentration. Treatment with lawsone to the RIF-INH administered animals significantly lowered the serum transaminases levels. The ratio of albumin to globulin was improved and the level of bilirubin was lowered. This study indicated the hepatoprotective effect of lawsone; detailed investigations will give deeper understanding of the application of lawsone for hepatoprotection.

Abstract
Different concentrations of standardized ethanolic extract from the basidiocarps of Tricholoma giganteum Massee (TgEtOH) were screened for hepatoprotective effects in an animal model of rats with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) fed a high-fat and high-fructose diet. After 4 weeks of treatment with TgEtOH, the relative liver weights, serum lipid concentrations, and biochemical profiles were found to be normal in treated animals compared with those given a standard drug. The macroscopic and histopathological studies clearly indicated that 200 mg/kg of ethanolic extract was effective in ameliorating the abnormalities of NAFLD. The findings indicate the efficacy of T. giganteum extract in liver protection. Future experiments on bioassay tailored fractionation of TgEtOH and mechanistic-based evaluation are required to assess the potential application of this mushroom as a food supplement in NAFLD.
