Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with mitochondrial damage. Circulating mitochondrial metabolites may be elevated in NAFLD but their associations with liver damage is not known. This study aimed to assess the association of key mitochondrial metabolites with the degree of liver fibrosis in the context of NAFLD and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Cross-sectional analyses were performed on two cohorts of biopsy-proven NAFLD and/or NASH subjects. The association of circulating mitochondrial metabolite concentrations with liver fibrosis was assessed using linear regression analysis. In the single-center cohort of NAFLD subjects (n = 187), the mean age was 54.9 ±13.0 years, 40.1% were female and 86.1% were White. Type 2 diabetes (51.3%), hypertension (43.9%) and obesity (72.2%) were prevalent. Those with high citrate had a higher proportion of moderate/significant liver fibrosis (stage F ≥ 2) (68.4 vs. 39.6%, p = 0.001) and advanced fibrosis (stage F ≥ 3) (31.6 vs. 13.6%, p = 0.01). Citrate was associated with liver fibrosis independent of age, sex, NAFLD activity score and metabolic syndrome (per 1 SD increase: β = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.03–0.35, p = 0.02). This association was also observed in a cohort of NASH subjects (n = 176) (β = 0.21, 95% CI: 0.07–0.36, p = 0.005). The association of citrate with liver fibrosis was observed in males (p = 0.005) but not females (p = 0.41). In conclusion, circulating citrate is elevated and associated with liver fibrosis, particularly in male subjects with NAFLD and NASH. Mitochondrial function may be a target to consider for reducing the progression of liver fibrosis and NASH.
