[Prevention and treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease by regulation of mitochondrial function with Chinese medicine].

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD), as a metabolic stress liver injury disease, is one of the most common chronic liver diseases, which seriously threatens people's health. The pathogenesis of NAFLD is very complex. A large number of studies show that the hepatic mitochondrial dysfunction leads to the disorder of hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, and inflammation, thus inducing hepatocyte apoptosis, which plays an important role in the progression of NAFLD.
