The knowledge accumulated over the past two decades has revealed that the natural history of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and the drivers of the disease severity are not only complex but also exhibit variation among patients. This intricate clinical scenario entails major therapeutic and management implications. In this review, we provide a comprehensive examination of recent advancements in our understanding of MASLD heterogeneity, drawing insights from multiomics and panomics studies. The discussion herein explores the instrumental role of panomics in MASLD research, elucidating the potential for the identification of molecular subtypes that exhibit divergent survival outcomes or heterogeneous responses to various treatments. Furthermore, we provide insights into the challenges in addressing disease heterogeneity and potential solutions. Finally, the most advanced technological advancements and prospective research directions in the domain of MASLD research are delineated, with the objective of facilitating the implementation of personalized diagnosis and interventions.
