Abstract This review provides an update on recent findings from basic, translational, and clinical studies the molecular mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction apoptosis hepatocytes in multiple liver diseases, including but not limited to alcohol-associated disease (ALD), metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic (MASLD), drug-induced injury (DILI). While ethanol-inducible cytochrome P450-2E1 (CYP2E1) is mainly responsible for oxidizing binge alcohol via microsomal ethanol system, it also metabolizing many xenobiotics, pollutants, chemicals, drugs, specific diets abundant n-6 fatty acids, into toxic metabolites organs, liver, causing pathological insults through organelles such as mitochondria endoplasmic reticula. Oxidative imbalances (oxidative stress) promote covalent modifications lipids, proteins, nucleic acids enzymatic non-enzymatic mechanisms. Excessive changes stimulate various post-translational (PTMs) transcription factors, histones. Increased PTMs proteins inactivate enzymes involved reduction oxidative species, acid metabolism, mitophagy pathways, leading dysfunction, energy depletion, apoptosis. Unique other organelles, control signaling cascades bioenergetics (fat metabolism), inflammation, apoptosis/necrosis hepatocytes. When homeostasis shifted, these pathways become altered or shut down, likely contributing death with activation inflammation hepatic stellate cells, fibrosis cirrhosis. will encapsulate how contributes hepatocyte several types diseases order provide recommendations targeted therapeutics.
