At present, nonalcoholic fatty liver fibrosis is one of the highlights of the research on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) , and there is an urgent need for exploring its pathogenesis and treatment drugs in clinical practice. Animal model is an important tool for basic research, and the mouse model becomes the most widely used animal model of nonalcoholic fatty liver fibrosis because of susceptibility, low costs, and genomes highly homologous to those of the human being. This article reviews the methods for establishing a mouse model of nonalcoholic fatty liver fibrosis, including nutritional factor, gene knockout or mutation, and induction with various factors, as well as the features of these models, in order to provide a reference for the selection of model tools in the basic research on this disease.
