IL18 and steatosis: Wang et al. [20] showed that acupuncture “Zu san li” (ST36), “Feng long” (ST40), “San yin jiao” (SP6), and “Tai chong” (LR3) in NAFLD rats induced by high-fat diet was found to reduce the expression level of IL-18 in liver tissue and serum, thus improving the degree of steatosis and inflammatory injury in liver tissue.
