摘要
Liver failure encompasses a range of severe clinical syndromes resulting from the deterioration of liver function,triggered by factors both within and outside the liver.While the definition of acute-on-chronic liver failure(ACLF)may vary by region,it is universally recognized for its association with multiorgan failure,a robust inflammatory response,and high short-term mortality rates.Recent advances in metabolomics have provided insights into energy metabolism and metabolite alterations specific to ACLF.Additionally,immunometabolism is increasingly acknowledged as a pivotal mechanism in regulating immune cell functions.Therefore,understanding the energy metabolism pathways involved in ACLF and investigating how metabolite imbalances affect immune cell functionality are crucial for developing effective treatment strategies for ACLF.This review methodically examined the immune and metabolic states of ACLF patients and elucidated how alterations in metabolites impact immune functions,offering novel perspectives for immune regulation and therapeutic management of liver failure.
