Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and steatohepatitis (MASH) are associated with a high prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Individuals with MASLD exhibit insulin resistance (IR) and hyperglycemia, but it is unclear whether hepatic glucose production (HGP) is increased with MASLD severity. We evaluated HGP in a cohort of histologically characterized individuals with MASL/MASH using stable isotope infusion (6,6-H-glucose, U-H-glycerol) and liver-specific genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs).

- Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a serious liver condition with limited treatment options and relies on manual biopsies for assessment, which often shows high variability among readers.
- A new artificial intelligence (AI) system, AIM-MASH, has been developed and validated across multiple sites to assist pathologists in scoring liver biopsies related to MASH, showing high reliability and consistency compared to traditional methods.
- AIM-MASH significantly improved the accuracy of assessing key factors like inflammation and MASH resolution when used by expert pathologists, suggesting it can reduce variability and enhance the evaluation of new treatments in MASH clinical trials.
