- W3013874232 abstract "MAFLD is the most prevalent liver disease and affects a quarter of the global population, with serious hepatic and extrahepatic consequences. The spectrum of MAFLD extends from hepatic fat accumulation to inflammation and, in some cases, to liver fibrosis and cancer. Human and animal studies indicate that MAFLD is associated with widescale alterations in the epigenetic landscape during its development and progression. Epigenetics-based drugs and editing tools are emerging as a promising therapeutic option to restore the normal (healthy) epigenetic landscape. This field has been enabled by the development of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 technology for locus-specific epigenetic targeting. Despite decades of research, effective therapies for metabolic (dysfunction)-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) are lacking. An increasing body of evidence suggests that epigenetic dysregulation is frequent in MAFLD, and orchestrates many aspects of its development and progression. Furthermore, the high plasticity of epigenetic modifications in response to environmental cues renders epigenetics a novel area for therapeutic drug discovery. Over recent years, several epigenetics-based drugs and diagnostic biomarkers have entered clinical development and/or obtained regulatory approval. Here, we review recent advances in our understanding of epigenetic regulation and programming during MAFLD, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, chromatin remodelling, transcriptional control, and noncoding (nc)RNAs. We also discuss the potential translational implications and challenges of epigenetics in the context of MAFLD.

They are the main storage site for retinoids (vitamin A and metabolites), contained within lipid droplets. There is unequivocal evidence that activation of HSCs is the central driver of extracellular matrix deposition during the process of liver fibrosis. the most prevalent liver disease in affluent countries and a primary cause of liver cirrhosis and HCC. The spectrum of disease extends from simple steatosis [the abnormal accumulation of fat (triglyceride) in the liver] to steatohepatitis, in which triglyceride accumulation is accompanied by hepatocyte injury and inflammation, and can progress to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and liver cancer." @default.
