Title: Mechanistic Insights into the Effects of Foodborne Natural Toxin Co-Exposure on MASH Using Human-Relevant In Vitro Models Research area and project description: Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a progressive liver disease with a substantial and growing global health burden. Increasing evidences suggest that environmental and dietary exposures may also contribute to liver dysfunction and disease progression. However, the role and underlying mechanisms of foodborne natural toxins remain insufficiently understood, particularly under realistic co-exposure scenarios. Foodborne natural toxins may affect multiple cellular pathways involved in liver metabolism, inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and other processes relevant to the development and progression of MASH1 …
