Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is fundamentally driven by an imbalance in hepatic fatty-acid flux: the influx of fatty acids exceeds the liver’s capacity for disposal, resulting in excessive hepatic lipid accumulation, predominantly in the form of triglycerides (TGs). The occurrence and progression of MAFLD depend on disordered regulation across multiple metabolic steps, including fatty-acid uptake, de novo lipogenesis (DNL), fatty-acid oxidation (FAO), and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) export. Forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) is a key transcriptional regulator within the hepatic network coordinating glucose and lipid metabolism. Under metabolic stress and insulin resistance (IR), FOXO1 expression is frequently increased, whereas its inhibitory phosphorylation is reduced. These changes enhance FOXO1 nuclear localization and transcriptional activity, thereby reprogramming the expression of genes related to metabolism in the liver. Because hepatic lipid deposition is the central pathological feature of MAFLD, the functional status of FOXO1 directly influences hepatic lipid homeostasis. Growing evidence suggests that FOXO1 can exert bidirectional, environment-dependent effects on hepatic lipid accumulation; however, the molecular basis for this functional switch remains incompletely understood. This review systematically summarizes the biological functions and regulatory mechanisms of FOXO1 and its roles in hepatic lipid metabolism, with a particular focus on its crosstalk with insulin signaling. FOXO1 expression is shaped by RNA modifications and epigenetic regulation mediated by non-coding RNAs. Its transcriptional output is precisely governed by post-translational modifications—such as phosphorylation and acetylation—as well as by coordinated nucleocytoplasmic shuttling. Notably, these regulatory patterns vary markedly across nutritional states, degrees of insulin resistance, and stages of disease. In the fed state, insulin/IGF-1 signaling activates the PI3K-AKT pathway, promoting the inhibitory phosphorylation of FOXO1 and facilitating additional modifications, including acetylation, methylation, and ubiquitination. Together, these events drive FOXO1 export from the nucleus and dampen its transcriptional activity, suppressing gluconeogenesis and constraining lipogenic programs. Conversely, during fasting or when insulin signaling is weakened, FOXO1 inhibition is relieved. FOXO1 accumulates in the nucleus, binds to DNA, and regulates the transcription of downstream target genes. Mechanistically, FOXO1 can aggravate hepatic lipid accumulation by activating genes involved in TG synthesis while repressing FAO-related pathways, thereby favoring storage over oxidation. However, under specific conditions, FOXO1 may also alleviate the hepatic lipid burden by promoting TG hydrolysis and enhancing VLDL secretion, thereby reducing the net hepatic lipid load. In addition, lipotoxic signals mediated by ceramides and diacylglycerols (Cer/DAG) activate atypical protein kinase C (aPKC), further exacerbating the disruption of the AKT-FOXO1 axis. This vicious cycle ultimately produces a metabolic paradox in which increased hepatic glucose output coexists with persistent, insulin-independent lipogenesis, accelerating MAFLD progression. Importantly, FOXO1 regulation is not uniform: during early metabolic overload, insulin-mediated suppression may remain effective, whereas in advanced insulin resistance, the loss of AKT control permits sustained FOXO1 activity. Such stage-dependent dynamics may help explain why FOXO1 can either promote steatosis or, in certain contexts, support programs that facilitate lipid turnover. Accordingly, interventions should be liver-specific and tuned to the disease stage, aiming to curb maladaptive FOXO1 signaling while preserving its capacity to promote triglyceride hydrolysis and VLDL secretion when advantageous. Overall, this review offers an important perspective on MAFLD pathogenesis, emphasizing FOXO1 as a potential therapeutic target and providing a theoretical basis for developing liver-specific, disease-course-dependent precision interventions.

Objective:To analyze the relevant studies on fertility concerns intervention programs for breast cancer survivors of childbearing age, and identify the specific content, outcome indicators and intervention effects of intervention, in order to provide reference for clinical staff to implement relevant intervention.Methods:According to the research method of scope review, the studies on the fertility concerns with breast cancer patients of childbearing age in China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, VIP, China Biomedical Literature Database, CINAHL, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science etc. were searched. The search period was from database establishment to May 9, 2024. The included literature was classified and analyzed.Results:A total of 12 articles were included, 9 were randomized controlled trials, 2 were self-controlled before and after studies, and 1 was a prospective cohort study. Fertility concerns intervention programs included group fertility counseling centered on couples, fertility support based on a multidisciplinary team collaboration model, and fertility management based on "Internet + reproductive health". The duration of intervention was usually 4 or 24 weeks. The intervention had different effects on the level of fertility concerns, psychological state and marital status.Conclusions:At present, the intervention programs for fertility concerns of breast cancer survivors of childbearing age reflect the importance, professionalism, immediacy and interactivity, but China is in the initial stage, and there are still shortcomings in multidisciplinary teams, fertility referral system, and Internet platform construction. Future research should build a breast cancer fertility intervention program suitable for our country, and promote its application through the Internet.

Objective:To investigate the effects of hepatic fatty acid transporter 5 (FATP5) gene expression on the levels of free long-chain fatty acid (LCFA) in mice with metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD).Methods:From June to December 2022, a prospective study was conducted with three experimental groups: wild-type (WT) group, FATP5 gene expression negative (FATP5 -) group, and human FATP5 gene expression positive (hFATP5 +) group, with 10 mice in each group. Each group of mice was fed a high-fat diet for 16 weeks to establish a model of MAFLD. Hepatic tissue changes were observed using hematoxylin-eosin staining. The liver mass and liver coefficient of the mice were measured. Total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), uric acid (UA), and LCFA levels were determined using an automatic biochemical analyzer. Blood glucose (Glu) levels were measured using a blood glucose analyzer. The liver mass and liver coefficient, TC and TG levels, AST and ALT levels, Glu and UA levels, and LCFA levels were compared among the three groups. Results:In the WT group, there was significant inflammatory cell infiltration within the hepatocytes and a large amount of fat accumulation. In the FATP5 - group, the inflammatory cell infiltration in the hepatocytes was mild with slight fat accumulation. In the hFATP5 + group, the inflammatory cell infiltration in the hepatocytes was severe, with great fat accumulation. The liver mass [(1.27 ± 0.25) g], liver coefficient (2.38 ± 0.19), TC [(1.82 ± 0.26) mmol/L], TG [(0.93 ± 0.24) mmol/L], AST [(169.95 ± 37.73) U/L], ALT [(95.36 ± 21.49) U/L], Glu [(8.34 ± 1.52) mmol/L], and UA [(74.32 ± 15.52) μmol/L] in the FATP5 - group were all significantly lower than those in the WT group [(1.61 ± 0.23) g, (2.71 ± 0.20), (2.31 ± 0.28) mmol/L, (1.34 ± 0.21) mmol/L, (278.31 ± 43.24) U/L, (147.32 ± 28.81) U/L, (10.52 ± 1.24) mmol/L, (96.28 ± 17.43) μmol/L], while the LCFA level [(3.57 ± 0.48) mg/L] in the FATP5 - group was significantly higher than that in the WT group [(2.63 ± 0.56) mg/L] ( t = 3.17, 3.78, 4.06, 4.07, 5.97, 4.57, 3.51, 2.98, 4.03, all P < 0.05). In the hFATP5 + group, the liver mass [(1.92 ± 0.30) g], liver coefficient (2.95 ± 0.23), TC [(2.59 ± 0.24) mmol/L], TG [(1.76 ± 0.35) mmol/L], AST [(341.22 ± 48.98) U/L], ALT [(189.45 ± 17.97) U/L], Glu [(13.21 ± 1.98) mmol/L], and UA [(117.74 ± 18.38) μmol/L] were all significantly higher than those in the WT group, while the LCFA level [(3.57 ± 0.48) mg/L] in the FATP5 + group was significantly lower than that in the WT group ( t = 2.59, 2.49, 2.40, 3.25, 3.04, 3.92, 3.64, 2.68, 3.19, all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The absence of FATP5 in the liver can elevate blood levels of LCFA in mice with MAFLD, reduce food intake, and help alleviate the symptoms of MAFLD.
