Abstract excerpt
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is characterized by infiltration of monocyte-derived macrophages (MdMs) into the liver; however, the function of these macrophages is largely unknown. We previously demonstrated that a population of MdMs, referred to as hepatic lipid-associated macrophages (LAMs), assemble into aggregates termed hepatic crown-like structures in areas of liver fibrosis....
