From gut to liver: Exploring the crosstalk between gut-liver axis and oxidative stress in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease by Mi Zhou, Jianyu Lv, Xinli Chen, Yujie Shi, Guanqun Chao, Shuo Zhang

“…Our analysis reveals several key findings: (1) Bile acid dysregulation can trigger oxidative stress through enhanced ROS production in hepatocytes and Kupffer cells, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid peroxidation; (2) Gut microbiota dysbiosis disrupts intestinal barrier function, allowing increased translocation of endotoxins like LPS, which activate inflammatory pathways through TLR4 signaling and promote oxidative stress via NADPH oxidase activation; (3) The redox-sensitive transcription factors NF-κB and Nrf2 serve as crucial mediators in the gut-liver axis, with NF-κB regulating inflammatory responses and Nrf2 orchestrating antioxidant defenses; (4) Oxidative stress-induced damage to intestinal barrier function creates a destructive feedback loop, further exacerbating liver inflammation and disease progression. …”
