Abstract

In recent years, with the changes in living standards and dietary structure, the incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease has been increasing year by year in China, and the incidence rate in the general population is as high as 29.81%. An increasingly epidemiological evidence suggests that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease has become one of the causes of increasing liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. However, its etiology and pathogenesis are complex and have not yet been fully elucidated. Therefore, establishing an appropriate non-alcoholic fatty liver disease animal models for pre-clinical research is essential to elucidate its pathogenesis. This article summarizes the latest research progress of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease animal models, which are common at home and abroad in recent years.

近年来,随着生活水平和饮食结构的改变,非酒精性脂肪性肝病的发病率呈逐年上升的趋势,在一般人群中的发病率高达29.81%。越来越多的流行病学证据表明,非酒精性脂肪性肝病已成为日益增长的肝硬化和肝癌的原因之一。但其病因和发病机制复杂,至今尚未完全阐明。构建非酒精性脂肪性肝病合适的动物模型进行临床前研究,对于阐明其发病机制至关重要。现就近年来国内外常见的非酒精性脂肪性肝病动物模型的最新研究进展进行综述。.
