Metabolic steatotic liver disease (MASLD) lacks effective pharmacological therapies targeting mitochondrial dysfunction, a central driver of disease progression. We hypothesized that dapagliflozin attenuates MASLD progression by promoting an indirect systemic fasting-mimicking state, thereby proposing the hypothesis of mitochondrial restoring mitochondrial bioenergetics restoration via modulation of the SIRT1–PGC-1α signaling...
