Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic liver diseases in China and manifests as simple fatty liver, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Studies have shown that intestinal flora can affect the development and progression of NAFLD via the "gut-liver axis" . Probiotics are active microorganisms with beneficial effects on the host, and more and more studies have found that probiotics play a positive role in improving NAFLD. They are cheaper, less harmful, and safer compared with antibiotics and surgery, and therefore, it may become a new method for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD. This article reviews the research advances in probiotics in the treatment of NAFLD, in order to provide a basis for the treatment of NAFLD using probiotics.
非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD)是中国最常见的慢性肝病之一,表现为单纯性脂肪肝、非酒精性脂肪性肝炎、肝硬化和肝细胞癌。研究表明,肠道菌群可通过“肠-肝轴”影响NAFLD的发生发展。益生菌是对宿主有有益作用的活性微生物,越来越多的研究发现益生菌在改善NAFLD方面发挥着积极作用。与抗生素和手术相比,它们价格更便宜、危害更小、更安全,因此可能成为预防和治疗NAFLD的新方法。本文综述了益生菌治疗NAFLD的研究进展,为应用益生菌治疗NAFLD提供依据。
