Autophagy regulators, including Beclin1, protein p62/Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) and Microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3) play a crucial role in autophagy pathways, and their assessment will contribute towards the deeper understanding of autophagy processes in NAFLD establishment and severity [23,24,25]. This evidence concerns the gene MAP1LC3A and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
