Nrf2-dependent mechanisms by which TBE-31 suppresses insulin resistance, NASH and cirrhosis. (A) The various mechanisms by which consumption of a high-fat and high-fructose diet is believed to drive hepatic steatosis, NASH, and cirrhosis.4, 5, 8 (B) The processes by which we envisage pharmacologic activation of Nrf2 inhibits and/or reverses liver disease caused by consumption of a diet enriched with high-fat and high-fructose foodstuffs.
