NASH: nonalcoholic steatohepatitis; TNF-alpha: tumor necrosis factor-alpha; clCAM: circulating intercellular adhesion molecule-1; VCAM: vascular cell adhesion molecule; cVCAM: circulating vascular cell adhesion molecule-1; eNOS: endothelial nitric oxide synthase; NO: nitric oxide; ROS: reactive oxygen species; NF-kappa β: nuclear factor-kappa β; CRP: c-reactive protein; TGF-beta1: transforming growth factor-beta 1. Here, VCAM1 is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.
