The accumulation of free fatty acids (FFAs) in hepatocytes is a key characteristic of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), which leads to lipid peroxidation and ultimately results in ferroptosis.

Consequently, an in-depth exploration of the roles of FFAs and ferroptosis in the progression of MASLD may reveal hitherto unidentified therapeutic targets.
