Core Tip	A growing body of evidence suggests that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is linked with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). There are some potential pathogenic mediators and mechanisms involved in this progress, including fetuin-A, tumor necrosis factor-? and adiponectin. Long-term H. pylori infection may cause insulin resistance and inflammation, contributing to NAFLD. H. pylori toxins in the portal circulation arising from the gastroduodenal area may be another intriguing point, which might be related to the increased intestinal permeability in patients with NAFLD. It is hoped that eradication of H. pylori will provide a new treatment strategy for NAFLD.
