A Comprehensive Review on the Impact of Hesperidin and Its Aglycone Hesperetin on Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Other Liver Disorders
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 November 2024
Abstract
The purpose of this review is to examine the effects of hesperidin and hesperetin on liver disorders. Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease is a complicated disorder influenced by many factors such as inflammation, diabetes, and obesity. Currently, the most prominent treatment method is lifestyle changes. If left untreated, it can progress to cirrhosis, liver fibrosis, and liver cancer. Hesperidin, which is a flavanone glycoside polyphenolic plant compound, belongs to the flavanone class and was first isolated from citrus peel. Hesperidin includes aglycone hesperetin and rutinoside sugar. It is the most dominant form of flavonoid in citrus fruits. In our review, we discussed the effects of these phytochemicals on liver diseases, focusing on their relationship with inflammation, blood sugar regulation, and blood lipids. Hesperidin and hesperetin are seen as promising agents for many diseases. Their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties support this view. Although their low water solubility limits their potential effects, many studies have demonstrated their benefits. They are thought to play an effective role in inflammatory processes, particularly in liver diseases ore studies are required to find the optimum dosage and to use them as a therapeutic agent for the liver.
