The next several slides illustrate the histopathology of NAFLD. As mentioned earlier, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of hepatic pathology that ranges from fatty liver (steatosis) on the most clinically-benign end of the spectrum to cirrhosis on the opposite extreme where most liver related morbidity and mortality occur. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an intermediate form of liver damage that sometimes progresses to cirrhosis. Some individuals who become cirrhotic from NAFLD develop hepatocellular carcinoma.

Hypothalamic obesity syndrome is incredibly rare. Later, fructose…
Adi Adipose tissue in obesity becomes refracdtory to insulins suppression of fat mobilization., Insulin resistance increases the release of FFA from the adipcyte. In the postprandial period there is an excess of FFA leading to fat deponsition in other tissues Hytperinsulinemiua stimulates fatty acid synthesi while inhibiting the oxidation of fatty acids.,sElevagted insulin may increase the degradation of apolipoprotein B100a component of VLDLcompromising triglyceride transport out of the liver causing anet accumulation of fat. ElevatedFFA and accumulagted triacylglycerol appear to inhibit insulin signalling leading to a reduction in insulin stimulated muscleglucose transporty,.The reduced muscle glucose transport leads to reduced glycogen syntethisisand glycolysis
Another interesting result of this study pertained to gender-related differences in hepatic steatosis. The latter was noted only in the Caucasian population, in which men were almost twice as likely as women to have fatty livers. In other ethnic subgroups, the prevalence of hepatic steatosis was similar in men and women.
