Abstract

This review summarizes the current state of knowledge on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and the hepatitis C virus (HCV)-associated liver fibrosis, and provides insight into the role of dysmetabolism in hepatic fibrogenesis. Clinical relevance of drugs correcting these metabolic disturbances in the reversion of liver fibrosis will also be discussed.
