Article Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common complication of chronic liver diseases and remains a relevant cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The global prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) as a risk factor for hepatocarcinogenesis is on the rise. Early detection of HCC has been crucial in improving the survival outcomes of patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), even in the absence of cirrhosis. Understanding how hepatocarcinogenesis develops in MASH is increasingly becoming a current research focus. Additive risk factors such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), genetic polymorphisms, and intestinal microbiota may have specific impacts. Pathophysiological and epidemiological associations between MASH and HCC will be discussed in this review. We will additionally review the available tumor therapies concerning their efficacy in MASH-associated HCC treatment.

Nuclear receptors (NRs) are a superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate gene expression in response to metabolic, hormonal, and environmental signals. These receptors play a critical role in metabolic homeostasis, inflammation, immune function, and disease pathogenesis, positioning them as key therapeutic targets. This review explores the mechanistic roles of NRs such as PPARs, FXR, LXR, and thyroid hormone receptors (THRs) in regulating lipid and glucose metabolism, energy expenditure, cardiovascular health, and neurodegeneration.

Macrophages play crucial roles in the progression of liver diseases. Increasing studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) could reshape the liver immune microenvironment by regulating the function and phenotype of macrophages, thereby exerting a therapeutic effect on liver diseases. Mitochondria, apart from being the central hub of energy metabolism, also finely regulate macrophage-mediated innate immune responses by modulating reactive oxygen species levels, cell polarization, and cell death.

Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death mechanism characterized by excessive lipid peroxidation, has been implicated in numerous human diseases and organ pathologies. However, current detection methods necessitate invasive tissue sampling to assess lipid peroxidation, making noninvasive detection of ferroptosis in human subjects extremely challenging. In this study, we employed oxidative volatolomics to comprehensively characterize the volatile oxidized lipids (VOLs) produced during ferroptosis.

Importance: As obesity rates rise in the US, managing associated metabolic comorbidities presents a growing burden to the health care system. While bariatric surgery has shown promise in mitigating established metabolic conditions, no large studies have quantified the risk of developing major obesity-related comorbidities after bariatric surgery.
Objective: To identify common metabolic phenotypes for patients eligible for bariatric surgery and to estimate crude and adjusted incidence rates of additional metabolic comorbidities associated with bariatric surgery compared with weight management program (WMP) alone.

Background And Aims: Inflammatory cell infiltration in the liver is a hallmark of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). However, the pathological events that trigger the infiltration of inflammatory cells to mediate MAFLD pathogenesis remains poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the function and mechanism of Hic-5 on hepatic inflammation of MAFLD.
