| [ Summary ] | In this review article, I discussed the role of animal models as a tool for NASH research. The characters, utilities, and problems of 17 NASH animal models have been described. Of these, no models have fitted the features of human NASH. These models are important for the study of the pathophysiology of NASH only if they are used for the proper aims of research. | |
