    Annotation Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) ? and its progressive form, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) ? leads to injury of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) as a key driver of disease progression. The integrity of LSECs is essential for hepatic microvascular homeostasis, and their dysfunction may exacerbate parenchymal injury and fibrogenesis. Cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitor, has demonstrated endothelial protective effects, enhancing endothelial function, reducing apoptosis, and modulating vasoactive mediators such as nitric oxide. However, it remains unknown whether cilostazol can similarly protect LSECs and thereby attenuate hepatic fibrosis in MASLD/MASH. We therefore investigated whether cilostazol mitigates liver fibrosis in a murine MASLD model complicated by diabetes, with a particular focus on the preservation of LSEC integrity. Mice were induced to develop MASH plus diabetes by combined feeding of a high-fat d
