RESUMEN
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has replaced chronic hepatitis B as the most common chronic liver disease in China and has now been renamed metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). The Brunt, the American NASH Clinical Research Network (NASH-CRN), the European Steatosis, Activity, and Fibrosis/Fatty Liver Inhibition of Progression (SAF/FLIP), and the Pediatric NAFLD are currently the four semi-quantitative grading systems for histological evaluation. This paper reviews these four scoring systems for the clinical selection of appropriate systems for diagnosis and prognosis assessment. This article is a review, and in order to coordinate the evaluation criteria of various scoring systems, the old name "NAFLD" is used.

Ste7 is a MEK (MAPK/ERK kinase) family member that functions in the pheromone induced mating response pathway of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We analysed the catalytic competence and in vivo function of Ste7 variants that have alterations of stimulatory and feedback phosphorylation sites. These analyses led us to unanticipated insights into two separate feedback mechanisms that impede the output of the mating response MAPK activation pathway.
