TNF and fatty liver disease: Some of them seem to be predominantly protective (tumor necrosis factor weak inducer of apoptosis, IL-10, IL-22, IL-25, IL-27), others appear to exhibit a possibly dual-faceted effect, depending on the stage of MASLD (TNF-α, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand, IL-2, IL-6, IL-18, IL-33, IFNs), whereas a third group of cytokines seems to be predominantly harmful, thus driving the progression of hepatic steatosis to MASH, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and possibly to hepatocellular carcinoma.
