Zinc supplementation suppresses the progression of liver fibrosis induced by bile duct ligation (BDL) in mice. The present study was undertaken to specifically investigate a possible mechanism by which zinc plays this role in the liver. Kunming mice were subjected to BDL for 4 weeks to induce liver fibrosis, and concomitantly treated with zinc sulfite or saline as control by gavage once a day. The results showed that zinc supplementation significantly suppressed liver fibrosis and inflammation along with inhibition of hepatic stellate cells activation induced by BDL. These inhibitory effects were accompanied by the reduction of collagen deposition and a significant reduction of macrophage infiltration affected livers. Importantly, zinc selectively inhibited M1 macrophage polarization and M1-related inflammatory cytokines. This inhibitory effect was further confirmed by the reduction of relevant biomarkers of M1 macrophages including inducible NO synthase (iNOS), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2), and tumor necrosis factor-α in the zinc supplemented BDL livers. In addition, zinc inhibition of M1 macrophages was associated with a decrease of Notch1 expression. Taken together, these data indicated that zinc supplementation inhibited liver inflammation and fibrosis in BDL mice through selective suppression of M1 macrophages, which is associated with inhibition of Notch1 pathway in M1 macrophage polarization.An evaluation of the impact of vitamin E deficiency on expression of the alpha-tocopherol transfer protein (α-TTP) and related CRAL_TRIO genes was undertaken using livers from adult zebrafish based on the hypothesis that increased lipid peroxidation would modulate gene expression. Zebrafish were fed either a vitamin E sufficient (E+) or d
