Research advances in the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease-related hepatocellular carcinoma / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

The incidence rate of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease-related hepatocellular carcinoma (NAFLD-HCC) is gradually increasing. Its pathogenesis is associated with the changes in genetic and epigenetic modifications, metabolism, immunity, intestinal microecology, endocrine pathways, and circadian rhythm. This article summarizes the available data on the pathogenesis of NAFLD-HCC and points out that HCC is caused by the interactions between multiple factors.
