Impact of physical exercise on metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD)

Obesity is a chronic multifactorial disease characterized by excess adiposity. Adipose tissue hypertrophy favors lipid deposition in ectopic tissues, such as the liver, which development of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver (MAFLD), excessive accumulation lipids cytoplasm hepatocytes (fatty liver). Triglyceride overload observed obesity associated with inflammation and insulin resistance status. Non-pharmacological strategies, practice physical exercise, seem to be an effective reducing inflammatory markers improving sensitivity obese individuals MAFLD attenuating hepatocellular steatosis. Thus, this review aims demonstrate factors involved hepatic steatosis, well investigate impact exercise on condition obesity-associated MAFLD.
