In the last few years, human metabolic disorders have become some
of the most prevalent and prejudicial diseases worldwide. Hepatic
steatosis, among many health problems, has several risk factors
related to the disease prognosis such as obesity, nutritional
problems, diabetes, hypertension, hyperuricemia, and even sleep
apnea. Alcohol abuse also can lead to a severe liver-steatosis
state. The progression of hepatic steatosis can lead to
complications such as cryptogenic cirrhosis and hepatocellular
carcinoma. Drug therapy has instead been focused on the mitigation
of risk factors, however new potential therapeutic perspectives are
being discussed. This book presents the origins, diagnosis and
epidemiology of hepatic steatosis with new perceptions. The authors
also aimed to show the molecular basis and signaling involved in
liver disorders, discussing the inflammatory process, lipid
metabolism and angiogenesis mechanisms. The role of nutrition in
the treatment and development of steatosis was also presented and
new advances were highlighted. Recent studies revealed the need for
the use of bariatric surgery, functional foods and the modulation
of endogenous systems, such as the sirtuins and renin-angiotensin
systems, to treat liver disease. In this context, we aimed to
introduce, review and discusses one of the most widespread
metabolic disorders in the world: hepatic steatosis and its
repercussions.
