Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been identified as the most common chronic worldwide, with a growing incidence. NAFLD is considered hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome that emerges from multiple factors (e.g., oxidative stress, disorders, endoplasmic reticulum cell death, and inflammation). steatohepatitis (NASH), an advanced form NAFLD, reported to be leading cause cirrhosis carcinoma, it progressing rapidly. Since there no approved pharmacotherapy for NASH, considerable number therapeutic targets have emerged deepening research on NASH pathogenesis. In this study, potential properties regulating metabolism, gut microbiome, antioxidant, microRNA, inhibiting apoptosis, targeting ferroptosis, stem cell-based therapy in are reviewed evaluated. single-drug treatment affected by individual heterogeneous responses side effects, imperative precisely carry out targeted low toxicity. Lastly, agent delivery based exosomes proposed such drugs different mechanisms can incorporated generate high-efficiency low-toxicity individualized medicine.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) poses an emerging threat topublic health. steatohepatitis (NASH) is reported to be the most rapidly rising cause of hepatocellular carcinoma in western world. Recently, a new term has been proposed: metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic (MASLD). The introduction this terminology sparked debate about interchangeability these terms. pathogenesis NAFLD/MASLD thought multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. Among factors, alterations gut microbiota dysbiosis have recently garnered significant attention. In context, review will further discuss gut-liver axis, which refers bidirectional interaction between human liver. Additionally, therapeutic potential probiotics, particularly next-generation probiotics genetically engineered bacteria, explored. Moreover, role prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics, phages as well fecal transplantation analyzed. Particularly for lean patients with NAFLD/MASLD, who limited treatment options, approaches that modify diversity composition may hold promise. However, due ongoing safety concerns modulate microbiota, large-scale studies are necessary better assess their efficacy treating NAFLD/MASLD.

Diet-induced metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a prevalent disorder with limited effective interventions available. A novel approach to address this issue through gut microbiota-based therapy. In our study, we utilized multi-omics analysis identify Phocaeicola vulgatus (P. vulgatus) as potential probiotic for the treatment of MASLD. Our findings from murine models clearly illustrate that supplementation P. mitigates development This beneficial effect partly attributed metabolite 3-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid (3-HPAA) produced by vulgatus, which reduces acetylation levels H3K27 and downregulates transcription Squalene Epoxidase (SQLE), rate-limiting enzyme in steroid biosynthesis promotes lipid accumulation cells. study underscores significant role MASLD critical importance its 3-HPAA regulating homeostasis.

Currently, disorders gut–liver axis have great importance pathogenesis cirrhosis. However, gut dysbiosis, which manifests as increased proportions microbiota Bacilli Proteobacteria that are capable bacterial translocation a decreased proportion Clostridia strengthen intestinal barrier, occurs even at pre-cirrhotic stage disease. This leads translocation, process by those microbes enter blood portal vein then tissue, where they activate Kupffer cells through Toll-like receptor 4.
