Core Tip Dynamic alterations of differential metabolites and immune cells were very useful for understanding metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease malignancy, with loss carnitine palmitoyl transferase-II activity and significant phosphatidylcholines and sphingomyelins via steroid biosynthesis. Interestingly, immune cells in a fat-rich microenvironment characterized by a decrease in T-cell dysfunction, an increase in programmed death ligand 1 expression for immune escape and M2-polarized macrophages to promote metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease malignancy.
