Abstract excerpt
Hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs) differentiated from human-induced pluripotent stem cells offer an alternative platform to primary human hepatocytes (PHHs) for studying the lipid metabolism of the liver. However, despite their great potential, the lipid profile of HLCs has not yet been characterized. Here, we comprehensively studied the lipid profile and fatty acid (FA) metabolism of HLCs and compared them with the...
