This groundbreaking study reveals how SARS-CoV-2 affects liver health, showing that the virus can infect hepatocytes and disrupt normal metabolic processes. With over 50% of COVID-19 patients experiencing liver dysfunction, researchers demonstrated that metformin could be a viable treatment option for those affected.
