Q

two hit hypothesis

A

first hit : steatosis sensitisizes liver to inflammatory induction
insult promotes oxidative stress resulting steatohepatitis

Q

other things..

A

increase in adiopocytes in size, hypertrophy eventuallyresults in rupture and recruits inflammatory cells to site
this stimulations adiopcytokine production

Q

gut dysbiosis mech

A

dybosis in gut with liposacchride of acteria which causes nflammation nd macrophage polarisation
colonic inmmune fibrosis
cause by dysbiosis where tlr4 binds to LPS and inducts dimersation
and signalling cascade is activation
prdcution of inflammation cytokines tnfalpha resulting ijn fibrosis of liver

Q

how alcohol works

A

alcohol can increase gut permeability, increase LPS and bacterial transplocation into the blood, ncrease steatosis n liver
macrophages are marker of neutorpil of activation
