Core Tip Oxymatrine alleviates metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, primarily through modulation of the gut microbiome (increasing Lactobacillus, reducing Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio) and the hepatic metabolome (increasing luteolin, decreasing adrenic acid). Fecal microbiota transplantation from oxymatrine donors recapitulated this protection, establishing a causal gut-liver axis for this natural alkaloid and offering a microbiota-guided therapeutic perspective.
