Macrovesicular steatosis (MS) is a major risk factor for liver graft failure after transplantation and pathological microscopic examination of a frozen tissue section remains the gold standard for its assessment. However, the latter requires an experienced in-house pathologist for correct and rapid diagnosis as well as specific equipment that...

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a complex chronic disease resulting from an interaction between genetic and environmental factors. The phenotype and pathophysiology of NAFLD is heterogeneous. NAFLD is a continuum of histological lesions of the liver from steatosis, Non-Alcoholic SteatoHepatitis (NASH), NASH with fibrosis, cirrhosis...

Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) have been identified as potent regulators of inflammation, cell death and wound healing, which are the main biological processes involved in the progression of chronic liver disease. Obesity and chronic alcohol consumption are the leading contributors to chronic liver diseases in developed countries, due to...

Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) is the progressive form of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD), the main cause of chronic liver complications. The development of NASH is the consequence of aberrant activation of hepatic conventional immune, parenchymal, and endothelial cells in response to inflammatory mediators from the liver,...

Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), previously called nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD), is one of the most important causes of chronic liver disease worldwide and will likely become the leading cause of end-stage liver disease in the decades ahead. MAFLD covers a continuum of liver diseases from fatty liver to...

Metabolic fatty liver diseases (Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Diseases-NAFLD) are liver abnormalities (steatosis and steatohépatitis) commonly related to visceral obesity and to the metabolic syndrome. The pathogenesis of metabolic fatty liver diseases is most probably linked to the adipose tissue insulin resistance with a very high free fatty...

Background: While metabolic health in obesity may confer a protective status, recent studies indicate that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or even nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) may exist in this category of individuals. Although cardiovascular and diabetic risks have been well described, the risk of NAFLD and NASH among this...
