The liver has several important endocrine functions, primarily through the production and secretion of hormones and proteins that regulate various metabolic processes. It produces insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), which plays a crucial role in growth and metabolism. Additionally, the liver synthesizes angiotensinogen, a precursor to hormones involved in blood pressure regulation, and hepcidin, which is key in iron metabolism. Overall, the liver helps maintain homeostasis by regulating glucose, lipid, and protein metabolism through its endocrine activities.

What body system does Fatty liver affect?
Fatty liver primarily affects the liver, which is a vital organ in the body's digestive system. It can lead to liver inflammation, fibrosis, and potentially progress to more severe liver diseases such as cirrhosis or liver cancer. Additionally, fatty liver can impact metabolic processes, influencing the endocrine system and increasing the risk of conditions like diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Overall, it can have widespread effects on overall health and metabolic function.
