Lycopene prevents lipid accumulation in hepatocytes by stimulating PPARα and improving mitochondrial function
The prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has increased over the decades. Lycopene (LYC), a major carotenoid present in tomato, has been previously demonstrated to possess liver-protecting and lipid-lowering bioactivities. However, the underlying mechanism of how LYC impact on the l...
