Abstract:
The incidence rate of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing year by year and NAFLD has become one of the most common liver diseases in the world. Metabolomics follows the research thoughts of genomics and proteomics and conducts a quantitative analysis of all metabolites in organisms to explore the association between metabolites and physiological and pathological changes, which provides a new way for studying the traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment of NAFLD. This article summarizes the research advances in metabolomics and traditional Chinese medicine syndromes in NAFLD, so as to provide new thoughts and methods for further exploration of NAFLD.
