Vascular endothelial growth factor and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

Research funding:

 

  • Published Date: 2011-08-20
  • Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent public health problem worldwide, whose pathologic changes are considered to cover a spectrum of disease activity including nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) , nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and even fatty liver cirrhosis (FLC) .Although the mechanism from NAFL to FLC has still been unclear, some researches showed the possible inducement mechanism, among which vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) playing a key role in promoting the liver inflammation and fibrosis of NAFLD.This article will review the recent findings concerning the relationship between VEGF and NAFLD.
