Hepatic lipid accumulation, or Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), is a significant risk factor for liver cancer. Despite the rising incidence of MASLD, the underlying mechanisms of steatosis and lipotoxicity remain poorly understood. Interestingly, lipid accumulation also occurs during fasting, driven by the mobilization of adipose tissue-derived fatty acids into the liver.

Background & Aims: The role of infiltrating neutrophils in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is modulated by cellular metabolism, specifically lipid homeostasis. Throughout the progression of HCC, alterations in lipid metabolism are intricately linked with regulation of neutrophil function and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). However, how much the protumor effect of a high-fat diet (HFD) depends on NETs and the potential interplay between NETs and other leukocytes in HCC remains uncertain.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Type 2 diabetic osteoporosis (T2DOP) is a metabolic bone disease characterized by impaired bone structure and decreased bone strength in diabetic patients. Jiangu Decoction (JGD), a traditional Chinese poly-herbal formulation, has shown efficacy in mitigating osteoporosis (OP) and fractures caused by osteoporosis in diabetic patients in clinical trials. In addition, JGD has been proven to promote the proliferation of osteoblasts.
