Oxidative Stress and the ER Stress Response in a Murine Model for Early-Stage Alcoholic Liver Disease
Table 2
Significant signs of alcohol-mediated liver injury are achieved following 6 weeks of ethanol ingestion. Blood ethanol concentration (BEC) is reported as mg/dL; ethanol ingestion results in a significant increase in liver-body weight ratio as early as 3 weeks; plasma ALT activity is significantly elevated after week 6. Values represent the average ± standard error of the mean (, , , ).
