The nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway plays a central role in antioxidant defense, and metallothionein-2 (MT2) is a potential downstream target.\n                      <jats:italic>Panax notoginseng<\/jats:italic>\n                      saponins (PNS) exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, but their effects on MASLD\n                      <jats:italic>via<\/jats:italic>\n                      Nrf2\/MT2 signaling remain unclear.

Hematoxylin and Eosin Staining (HE) and Oil Red O staining were conducted. Levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-\u03b1 (TNF-\u03b1) were measured. RNA sequencing was conducted, and expression of Nrf2, MT2 was measured.

PNS significantly alleviated oxidative stress and inflammation potentially through Nrf2\/MT2 in MASLD mice.
