Core Tip This letter underscores the early immune disturbances in adolescents with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) revealed through transcriptomic and cytokine analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). By exposing PBMCs to autologous fecal extracts, the study recreates gut-liver interactions in vitro, highlighting how host-specific microbiota shape systemic immune responses. These results suggest that PBMC-derived immune signatures could serve as minimally invasive biomarkers and inform the development of personalized diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in pediatric NAFLD.
