Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects 1 in 3-4 adult individuals and can progress to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and cirrhosis. Insulin resistance plays a central role in MASLD/MASH pathophysiology with higher rates of MASLD (2 in 3) and MASH with fibrosis (1 in 5) in adults with obesity and diabetes. This review summarizes the role of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in treating MASLD/MASH. Although not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of MASLD, this class of medication is available to treat obesity and type 2 diabetes and has been shown to reverse steatohepatitis, reduce cardiovascular risk, and is safe to use across the spectrum of MASLD with or without fibrosis.
