Abstract
A method for preventing, improving, or treating fatty liver includes administering an effective amount of an azelaic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to a subject. Azelaic acid which is a compound primarily contained in a natural product, has no or fewer side effects and reduces accumulation of triglycerides in liver tissue, and thus may prevent, improve, or treat a non-alcoholic fatty liver. In addition, due to an anti-inflammatory effect, azelaic acid may be used in the treatment of steatohepatitis. Therefore, the azelaic acid according to the present disclosure is expected to be effectively used in a food composition, a pharmaceutical composition and a health functional food composition to treat fatty liver or steatohepatitis.
