Abstract

Liver steatosis without alcohol consumption, namely, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is a common hepatic condition that encompasses a wide spectrum of presentations, ranging from simple accumulation of triglycerides in the hepatocytes without any liver damage to inflammation, necrosis, ballooning, and fibrosis (namely, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis) up to severe liver disease and eventually cirrhosis and/or hepatocellular carcinoma. The pathophysiology of fatty liver and its progression is influenced by multiple factors (environmental and genetics), in a “multiple parallel‐hit model,” in which oxidative stress plays a very likely primary role as the starting point of the hepatic and extrahepatic damage. The aim of this review is to give a comprehensive insight on the present researches and findings on the role of oxidative stress mechanisms in the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of NAFLD. With this aim, we evaluated the available data in basic science and clinical studies in this field, reviewing the most recent works published on this topic.

  • An increase in ROS formation is accompanied by decrease in the levels of glutathione, MnSOD and Catalase.

    “An increase in ROS formation was accompanied by decrease in the levels of glutathione, MnSOD and Catalase [31].”

    From Intervention by picroside II on FFAs induced lipid accumulation and lipotoxicity in HepG2 cells (2021) · cites this paper as [31]

    Section 2.1 reports that, in a high-fat-diet mouse model, increased oxidative stress was associated with lower glutathione levels and reduced catalase and superoxide-dismutase activity. Section 2 separately links reduced MnSOD activity to increased ROS production. The paper supports the general association, but it does not report decreased MnSOD and catalase levels together with increased ROS; it discusses enzyme activity, and the findings come from different contexts.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
