In Vivo Model
Male C57BL/6 mice (7 weeks old) were purchased from Koatech Co. (Animal Breeding Center, Pyongtaek, Korea). Animals were kept on a 12 h light/dark cycle in a specific pathogen-free area with food and water freely available in the animal facility for 1 week before the experiment. All experimental animals were randomly separated into five groups as follows: Saline, LPS (1 g/kg) + D-GalN (400 mg/kg), LPS/D-GalN + YA (10 mg/kg), LPS/D-GalN + YA (50 mg/kg), and LPS/D-GalN + silymarin (25 mg/kg). YA and silymarin were pre-administered for 10 days before LPS/D-GalN by oral gavage. LPS/D-GalN was injected intraperitoneally. Blood and tissues were collected 6 h after LPS/D-GalN injection.

Response regulation Tyrosine-alanine (YA) had a hepatoprotective effect by reducing inflammation, apoptosis, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis in the LPS/D-GalN-injected ALF mouse model. YA can be used as a functional peptide for the prevention of acute liver injury.
