ANXA1 and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis: Histological analysis indicated that AnxA1-producing cells were more frequent in livers of animals with advanced NASH (8 weeks on the MCD diet) than in those with less-severe steatohepatitis (4 weeks of treatments; 4.7 ± 0.5 vs. 2.8 ± 0.8 cells/high-magnification field [hmf]; P = 0.03).
