Therapeutic options are urgently needed for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), but development is time-consuming and costly. In contrast, drug repurposing offers the advantages of re-applying compounds that are already approved, thereby reducing cost. Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and pentoxifylline (PTX) have shown promise for treatment of NAFLD, but have not yet been tested in combination. Guinea pigs were fed a high-fat diet for 16 weeks and then continued on the diet while being treated with ASA, PTX or ASA+PTX for 8 weeks. Chow-fed animals served as healthy controls. Guinea pigs were CT scanned before intervention start and at intervention end. Animals without steatosis (ie NAFLD) at week 16 were excluded from the data analysis. ASA and PTX alone or in combination did not improve hepatic steatosis, ballooning, inflammation or fibrosis nor did the treatments affect liver enzymes (aminotransferases and alkaline phosphatase) or circulating lipids. Liver triglyceride levels, relative liver weight and hepatic mRNA expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, interleukin 8 and platelet-derived growth factor b were nominally decreased. Thus, in the current study, treatment with ASA and PTX alone or in combination for 8 weeks did not ameliorate NASH or hepatic fibrosis in guinea pigs.
