Silibinin ameliorates deoxycholic acid-induced pyroptosis in steatotic HepG2 cells by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) represents an inflammatory subtype of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The activation of the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome triggers pyroptosis, thus propelling the progression from simple steatosis to NASH. Silibinin, a hepatoprotective...
