Autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） is a chronic inflammatory liver disease mediated by T lymphocytes， and it can progress to liver cirrhosis or even liver failure without timely intervention. As a natural flavonoid compound， naringenin （NAR） shows a potential value in the prevention and treatment of AIH through multiple mechanisms such as remodeling immune homeostasis， targeted inhibition of inflammatory pathways， antioxidation， regulating hepatocyte metabolism and apoptosis， improving mitochondrial function， and regulating intestinal flora. However， the clinical translation and application of NAR is limited by issues such as low bioavailability and insufficient efficiency of liver-targeted delivery. This article systematically reviews the mechanism of action of NAR in the prevention and treatment of AIH， explores the potential signaling pathways involved in this process， and analyzes existing challenges in its translation and application and future research directions， so as to provide a reference for further research on NAR and its application in the prevention and treatment of AIH.

Objective:To explore the association of serum levels of 41 serum cytokines and growth factors with the risk of sero-negative rheumatoid arthritis(SNRA)by Mendelian randomization.Methods:Genetic instruments for 41 circulating cytokines and growth factors were determined from a genome-wide association study(GWAS)of 8 293 European participants.Summary statistics for the SNRA were obtained from the Finnish database,including 3 877 SNRA cases and 285 035 controls of European ancestry.All of the inverse variance weighted(IVW),weighted median method(WM)and MR-Egger regression were used for MR analysis,while the IVW method was considered as the main analysis.The sensitivity analysis included a heterogeneity test,horizontal pleiotropic test,and leave-one method test to determine the reliability of the MR results.Results:In the IVW method,TNF-α[OR=1.470,95%CI(1.1331～1.910),P=0.004],IP-10[OR=0.794,95%CI(0.660～0.955),P=0.015]and IL-2rα[OR=0.049,95%CI(0.856～0.999),P=0.049].Sensitivity analysis showed no heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy.Conclusion:TNF-α,IP-10 and IL-2rα are causally associated to SNRA.TNF-α increases the risk of SNRA,while IP-10 and IL-2rα reduce the risk of SNRA.
