From NAFLD to MASLD: implications of the new nomenclature for preclinical and clinical research

Abstract

Non-alcoholic liver disease (NAFLD) is now metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), emphasizing the key metabolic factors of obesity, insulin resistance, vascular dysfunction, and dyslipidemia. Here, we discuss impacts on the existing body of clinical and preclinical liver disease research and research moving forward.
