Research advances in the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease / 临床肝胆病杂志

Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is a common cause of liver dysfunction and death due to liver-related diseases, which brings great harm to human health and social development. Many factors are involved in the development and progression of ALD, such as oxidative stress, change in gut microbiota, genetic variation, autophagy inhibition, and microRNAs. This article summarizes the mechanism of action of these factors in ALD, in order to provide a basis for the treatment of ALD and the discovery of new drug targets.
