Metabolic-dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a common nutritional metabolic disease in poultry that seriously compromises the health of chickens and reduces the economic benefits of the industry. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic effect of mitoxantrone (MTX) on hepatic steatosis in broilers. We constructed a steatosis cell model in vitro by adding oleic acid and palmitic acid to chicken hepatocytes (LMH cells), to examine influence of MTX on fat deposition on LMH cells. To determine the effects of MTX on hepatic steatosis in broiler livers in vivo , broilers were fed a high-fat diet to establish a fatty liver model. Our data show that MTX reduced the triglyceride (TG) levels and total cholesterol levels in LMH cells. In the MAFLD chick model, MTX decreased mRNA abundance of hepatic-lipid-synthesis-related gene such as FASN and increased mRNA abundance of fatty-acid-β-oxidation-related genes such as CPT1 , PPARα , and reduced hepatic TG levels. MTX also reduced serum lipid and the percentage of abdominal fat. These results suggest that MTX improves hepatic steatosis in broilers as well as reduces circulating lipid levels and fat accumulation in broilers. Our work provides a promising therapeutic strategy for MAFLD and excessive fat accumulation in broiler chickens. • Mitoxantrone decreases the lipid content of chicken hepatocytes. • Mitoxantrone improves hepatic steatosis in broilers. • Mitoxantrone reduced lipid accumulation in broilers.
