The prospective pathomechanism contributing to the FD-induced hepatic lipid accumulation. FD prevents mTOR phosphorylation, which enhances autophagic initiation. The decreased mTOR phosphorylation also down-regulates cathepsin L expression, which results in ineffective lysosomal activity and impaired autolysosome maturation, leading to disrupted autophagic flux and hepatic lipid accumulation
