In the past, alcohol-mediated hepatocyte injury was assumed to be a significantly major cause of ALD. However, a huge number of recent and brilliant studies have demonstrated that hepatic non-parenchymal cells including Kupffer cells, hepatic stellate cells, liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and diverse types of lymphocytes play crucial roles in the pathogenesis of ALD by producing inflammatory mediators such as cytokines, oxidative stress, micro RNA, and lipid-originated metabolites(retinoic acid and endocannabinoids) or by directly interacting with parenchymal cells(hepatocytes). Therefore, understanding the comprehensive roles of hepatic nonparenchymal cells during the development of ALD will provide new integrative directions for the treatment of ALD. This review will address the roles of nonparenchymal cells in alcoholic steatosis, inflammation, and liver fibrosis and might help us to discover possible therapeutic targets and treatments involving modulating the non-parenchymal cells in ALD.展开更多
