Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Many etiologies of fatty liver disease (FLD) are associated with the hyperactivation of one of the three pathways composing the unfolded protein response (UPR), which is a harbinger of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The UPR is mediated by pathways initiated by PRKR-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase, inositol-requiring 1A/X box binding protein 1, and activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), and...
