| Title: | Gut peptide and neuroendocrine regulation of hepatic lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in health and disease. |
| Abstract: | Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a continuum of disorders that can range from simple steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). As a complex metabolic disorder, the pathophysiology of NAFLD is incompletely understood. Recently glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 and -2 signalling has been implicated in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. The role of these gut hormones in the hepatic abnormalities is complicated by lack of consensus on the presence of GLP-1 and GLP-2 receptors within the liver. Nevertheless, GLP-1 and GLP-2 receptor agonists have been associated with alterations in lipid metabolism and hepatic and systemic inflammation, pathological abnormalities characteristic of NAFLD. Treatment with GLP-1 analogues has been shown to reverse features of NAFLD including insulin resistance, and alterations in hepatic de novo lipogenesis and reactive oxygen species. In this review, we provide an overview of the role of GLP-1 and GLP-2 in lipid homeostasis and metabolic disease including NAFLD and NASH. |
