Adipose tissue has emerged as a central regulator of systemic metabolic homeostasis, where dysfunction contributes to excess free fatty acid flux, chronic inflammation, and hepatic steatosis. In this context, adipose tissue browning\u2014the induction of thermogenically active beige adipocytes within white adipose depots\u2014has gained attention as a potential therapeutic mechanism.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Recent Findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Recent advances highlight that adipose browning modulates multiple pathways relevant to MASLD. These include enhanced mitochondrial \u03b2-oxidation and energy expenditure, leading to reduced lipid delivery to the liver, as well as endocrine signaling mediated by batokines such as fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), irisin, and neuregulin 4 (Nrg4). Collectively, these pathways influence hepatic lipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and inflammatory and fibrotic processes. The preclinical studies consistently demonstrate metabolic and hepatoprotective benefits of browning; however, translational evidence in humans remains limited and heterogeneous. Factors such as reduced thermogenic capacity in obesity, inter-individual variability, and challenges in sustaining browning activation constrain clinical applicability.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, adipose tissue browning represents a promising component of a systems-based approach to MASLD.
