  • ‍Liver failure is a serious clinical syndrome of liver disease with critical condition and high mortality, and besides liver transplantation, there is still a lack of satisfactory radical treatment methods. The pathogenesis of liver failure is complex and remains unclear, involving a variety of factors that affect the balance of hepatocyte necrosis and regeneration. This article summarizes autophagy as the key pathway for maintaining cell homeostasis and points out that autophagy plays an important protective role in the pathogenesis of liver failure by regulating NLRP3 inflammasome activation, reducing oxidative stress, and inhibiting cell apoptosis. Meanwhile, it is believed that the molecular signaling pathways targeting autophagy, such as exosomes and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α, participate in antagonizing the development and progression of liver failure and will become important ideas and directions for molecular targeted therapies for liver failure.
