Patients with MASLD Exhibit In Vivo Changes in Hepatic Response to Oral Fructose Consumption

Key Points

To investigate how fructose consumption affects hepatic metabolic responses in patients with MASLD.
Analyzed metabolic responses in patients with MASLD after fructose intake.
Measured changes in phosphate metabolites to assess hepatic changes.
Patients displayed distinct patterns in phosphate metabolism after fructose consumption.
Findings indicate a different hepatic metabolic handling of fructose in MASLD.

Abstract

Following fructose consumption, patients with MASLD exhibited distinct patterns of change in phosphate metabolites, reflecting differences in hepatic metabolic responses. These findings suggest altered hepatic metabolic handling of fructose in MASLD, which may have implications for disease progression.
