Protective enzyme may slow fatty liver disease progression

Original: This protective enzyme could help stop fatty liver disease from getting worse

Researchers report that a protective enzyme could help prevent fatty liver disease from worsening. The enzyme appears to interfere with the processes that drive the condition from early fat buildup to more serious liver damage. Fatty liver disease affects millions worldwide and has few approved treatments, so findings pointing to new ways to slow its progression are drawing attention from clinicians and patients.

Why now: New research suggesting a potential way to slow a common and hard-to-treat liver condition is drawing interest.
