The invention discloses application of serum MSTN (myostatin) as a marker in preparation of a metabolism-related steatohepatitis diagnosis product, and belongs to the technical field of biomedical detection. The biomarker for noninvasive diagnosis of the metabolism-related steatohepatitis is serum myosostatin MSTN, and the biomarker can be used as a detection target for preparing a noninvasive diagnosis product of the metabolism-related steatohepatitis. As an independent biomarker, the MSTN is higher in diagnosis efficiency in AST normal patients; the MSTN and the ALT or the AST are jointly applied, so that the specificity and the positive predictive value (PPV) of single use of the ALT or the AST can be improved, the misdiagnosis rate of the ALT or the AST can be reduced, non-MASH patients can be more accurately excluded, and unnecessary, invasive or expensive subsequent examinations are reduced.
