Why does hepatic steatosis persist despite improved hepatic gene expression profiles?

OPEN

FB23 treatment modulated hepatic genes involved in lipid metabolism and oxidative stress, yet hepatic steatosis remained unchanged. This discordance between molecular markers and tissue pathology suggests unknown regulatory mechanisms that could impact therapeutic efficacy.
