Key result
Traditional Chinese medicine, including monomers, compounds, and patent medicines, shows potential in treating non-alcoholic fatty liver disease by improving oxidative stress status.
Why the study?
NAFLD pathogenesis is complex with no highly effective clinical treatment, and oxidative stress is an important factor in its progression.
This review summarizes the mechanisms by which traditional Chinese medicine improves oxidative stress in NAFLD, providing potential new ideas for clinical treatment.
May reduce oxidative stress in NAFLD; leaves open whether it improves clinical outcomes in rigorous trials.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) accounts for an increasing proportion of liver diseases, but its pathogenesis is more complex, and there is no more effective clinical treatment. Oxidative stress is considered to be an important factor leading to the progression of NAFLD. Therefore, improving the oxidative stress status of NAFLD patients is of great significance for the prevention and treatment of the disease. In recent years, a number of experimental studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages in the treatment of various clinical diseases, and domestic and foreign researches on the treatment of NAFLD with traditional Chinese medicine are also emerging one after another. Based on this, this paper summarizes the mechanism of some traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine compound and Chinese patent medicine on oxidative stress in the development of NAFLD, in order to provide new ideas for clinical treatment of NAFLD.
