To synthesize recent scientific progress on the molecular mechanisms that drive sex-specific disparities in both acute and chronic liver conditions.
Synthesized findings from animal models and clinical investigations of acute and chronic liver etiologies.
Evaluated acute hepatic disorders such as drug-induced liver injury alongside chronic diseases including viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, autoimmune conditions, and hepatocellular carcinoma.
Hepatic disease progression shows consistent sex disparity, with women frequently experiencing a more favorable prognosis than men in specific chronic conditions.
Molecular pathways that modulate injury response, inflammation, and fibrosis differ significantly between sexes across xenobiotic exposures and liver malignancies.

Implication

Review reveals distinct sex-dependent molecular mechanisms across acute and chronic hepatic diseases, indicating that biological sex critically influences liver damage progression and prognosis.
