About this document
Hepatic Lipid Accumulation in NAFLD by bagas umam alwi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses the molecular mechanisms of hepatic lipid accumulation in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It summarizes that hepatic steatosis results from an imbalance between lipid acquisition (uptake of circulating fatty acids and de novo lipogenesis) exceeding lipid disposal (fatty acid oxidation and export). Specifically, it describes how in NAFLD, the uptake of fatty acids and de novo lipogenesis are increased while fatty acid oxidation is insufficient to normalize lipid levels, pot
