| Core Tip |
Macrophages play a central role in the progression of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD), from initial liver injury to advanced stages like cirrhosis. Elafibranor (EFN), a dual PPARα/δ agonist, offers a promising therapeutic approach by reducing liver fibrosis, inhibiting macrophage activation, and suppressing TLR4/NF-κB inflammatory pathways. Additionally, EFN strengthens intestinal barrier function, addressing key drivers of ALD. With its dual anti-inflammatory and fibrosis-reducing effects, EFN holds potential for ALD and other liver diseases characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis. Further research is needed to validate its clinical applications. |
