Core Tip |
As non-alcoholic fatty liver disease affects 30% of the world’s population and it should be considered a public health problem. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are a type of cell with a high degree of differentiation, immunomodulatory and regenerative potential, which qualifies them for the treatment of inflammatory, autoimmune and immune-mediated diseases. MSCs could be the basis for developing drugs to treat diseases that currently have no definitive or curative treatment. MSCs have the potential to transform into hepatocytes and reduce steatosis and the degree of liver fibrosis. MSCs are promising for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, but there is a need to design clinical trials to obtain robust results for their implementation in medical practice. |
