Title: | [New development for targeted therapy of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease with thyroid hormone receptor beta]. |
Abstract: | Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease has now become a common hepatic metabolic disease, but there is no universally approved therapeutic drug on the market, so there is an urgent need to explore relevant therapeutic drugs. Several studies have shown that the thyroid hormone receptor β, which is specifically expressed in the liver, plays an important role in lipid metabolism. T3 analogs and thyroid hormone receptor β-specific agonists have been developed for thyroid hormone receptor β. Many studies have shown that it can inhibit hepatic triglyceride synthesis, increase hepatic cholesterol clearance, reduce lipid deposition, and at the same time partly increase insulin sensitivity, promote glucose metabolism, and improve inflammation. Therefore, it has become a therapeutic drug with great potential for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Herein, the mechanism, clinical research and drug development status are reviewed in order to provide new ideas for targeted therapy of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease with thyroid hormone receptor β. |
