Room 4 (2F)
In recent years, emerging evidence has highlighted various intertwining mechanisms that link diabetes and NAFLD. This session aims to delve into cutting-edge research focusing on four key topics that explore the intricate inter-organ connections. The session will provide attendees with a comprehensive overview of pathophysiology of diabetes and NAFLD, showcasing cutting-edge research and novel insights into the molecular mechanisms that connect these two metabolic conditions. By understanding the molecular mechanism and interconnections among islet cells, intestine, adipose tissue, and the liver, researchers and clinicians can work collaboratively to develop targeted and effective treatments for individuals suffering from the concomitant burden of diabetes and NAFLD.
