Application of auricularia auricula monomer polysaccharide ME-2 in preparation of medicine for preventing and treating fatty liver disease related to metabolic dysfunction

The invention discloses application of auricularia auricula monomer polysaccharide ME-2 in preparation of drugs for preventing and treating fatty liver diseases related to metabolic dysfunction. The research of the invention systematically proves that ME-2 has a remarkable intervention effect on the whole course of MASLD for the first time. The invention discloses a breakthrough function of ME-2 as a liver metabolism regulator for the first time: by directly correcting liver lipid metabolism disorder (such as regulating core genes such as Srebp-1c, ACC1, FASN and the like), liver fatty degeneration can be relieved in a dose-dependent manner in the whole course of MASLD, and the serum transaminase level and dyslipidemia can be reduced. Importantly, the curative effect of the traditional Chinese medicine is derived from intervention on a metabolic root source, and is totally different from a known anti-inflammatory application mechanism. Meanwhile, ME-2 has the remarkable advantages of being clear in structure, taking metabolic regulation as a core, and being safe and non-toxic, and a brand new drug candidate is provided for prevention and treatment of MASLD.
