ObjectiveTo expounded the relationship between phenylalanine, tyrosine and their metabolites and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). MethodThe literatures related to NAFLD in recent years were reviewed and analyzed. ResultThe levels of phenylalanine, tyrosine and their metabolites had changed significantly in the occurrence and development of NAFLD, and could lead to the progress of NAFLD by affecting the related pathways of lipid metabolism. ConclusionPhenylalanine, tyrosine and their related metabolites are associated with NAFLD, but the specific pathogenesis is still unclear.
