Serological and Histological Examination of a Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Mouse Model Created via the Administration of Monosodium Glutamate

<div>Hematoxylin-eosin staining (400× magnification) of the liver and epididymal adipose tissue at 18 weeks. Photographs of one representative animal from each group are shown. Lipid accumulation and ballooning in the liver, increased amounts of visceral fat, and crown-like structures (arrow) were noted in the MSG mice. Data for one representative mouse per group are shown. MSG: mice that were subcutaneously injected with monosodium glutamate; MCD: mice fed a methionine- and choline-deficient diet; control: control mice.</div>
