Immune Mechanisms in Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
Non-alcoholic fatty liver had been believed to be a non-progressive benign disease. However, Ludwig et al. described some patients who exhibited progressive steatohepatitis without habitual alcohol drinking (Ludwig et al., 1980) and referred to this disease as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Later, NASH and non-progressive simple steatosis patients were included in the single disease enti...
متن کاملLiver Fibrogenesis in Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is emerging as one of the most common chronic liver diseases in developed western countries. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the most severe form of NAFLD, and can progress to more severe forms of liver disease, including fibrosis, cirrhosis, and even hepatocellular carcinoma. The activation of hepatic stellate cells plays a critical role in NAS...
متن کامل[Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis].
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are the hepatic manifestations of the metabolic syndrome. Since the prevalence of obesity and consequently of the metabolic syndrome is steadily increasing, the different types of NAFLD are nowadays the most common cause of liver injury in North America.

متن کاملCommon pathogenic mechanism in development progression of liver injury caused by non-alcoholic or alcoholic steatohepatitis.
This review showed the common pathogenic mechanism in the development of non-alcoholic or alcoholic steatohepatitis. In particular, we describe the role of innate immune system and oxidative stress caused by gut-derived endotoxin. Gut-derived endotoxin plays an important role in alcoholic liver injury. It was reported that acute ethanol administration reduced activation of Kupffer cells. It is ...
متن کاملNovel Molecular Mechanisms in the Development of Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common causes of chronic liver disease in adults and children worldwide. NAFLD has become a severe health issue and it can progress towards a more severe form of the disease, the non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). A combination of environmental factors, host genetics, and gut microbiota leads to excessive accumulation of lipids in ...
