Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects over 30% of the global population and spans a spectrum of liver abnormalities, including simple steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recent studies have identified triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2)-expressing macrophages as key regulators of MASLD progression. TREM2 plays a pivotal role in regulating macrophage-mediated processes such as efferocytosis, inflammatory control, and fibrosis resolution. Additionally, soluble TREM2 (sTREM2) was proposed as a noninvasive biomarker for diagnosing and monitoring MASLD progression. However, the molecular mechanisms through which TREM2 influences MASLD pathogenesis remain incompletely understood. This review summarizes the current understanding of TREM2-expressing macrophages in MASLD, with the goal of illuminating future research and guiding the development of innovative therapeutic strategies targeting TREM2 signaling pathways.
期刊介绍:
Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism (TEM) stands as a premier Reviews journal in the realms of metabolism and endocrinology. Our commitment is reflected in the publication of refined, concise, and highly impactful articles that delve into cutting-edge topics, encompassing basic, translational, and clinical aspects. From state-of-the-art treatments for endocrine diseases to groundbreaking developments in molecular biology, TEM provides comprehensive coverage.
Explore recent advancements in diabetes, endocrine diseases, obesity, neuroendocrinology, immunometabolism, molecular and cellular biology, and a myriad of other areas through our journal.
TEM serves as an invaluable resource for researchers, clinicians, lecturers, teachers, and students. Each monthly issue is anchored by Reviews and Opinion articles, with Reviews meticulously chronicling recent and significant developments, often contributed by leading researchers in specific fields. Opinion articles foster debate and hypotheses. Our shorter pieces include Science & Society, shedding light on issues at the intersection of science, society, and policy; Spotlights, which focus on exciting recent developments in the literature, and single-point hypotheses as Forum articles. We wholeheartedly welcome and encourage responses to previously published TEM content in the form of Letters.
