Gene expression/pathway visualization showed upregulation of fatty acid uptake and re-esterification genes (Cd36, Slc27a1, Mogat2, Fabp1/2, Got2) and downregulation of cholesterol transporters (Scarb1, Npc1l1) (Figure 4p), implying Schisandra reprograms hepatic and intestinal lipid handling to ameliorate NAFLD. Here, NPC1L1 is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
