Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Identified a novel Lp-PLA2–HK2 regulatory axis driving metabolic dysfunction in MAFLD. • CA directly targets Lp-PLA2 with high binding affinity and improves steatosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress. • CA suppresses glycolytic reprogramming and restores mitochondrial function via HK2 downregulation. • The Glu304 residue of Lp-PLA2 is essential for CA-mediated therapeutic effects, highlighting a precise molecular target.
