This study documents a novel mechanism by which changes in body composition, notably increased muscle mass, protect against fatty liver disease. This mechanism involves NADPH oxidase 1 (NOX1), an enzyme that increases superoxide and increases insulin signaling, leading to increased fat accumulation in the liver. NOX1 may represent a new early target for preventing fatty liver to stave off later liver diseases such as cirrhosis or liver cancer.
