Core liver homeostatic co-expression networks are preserved but respond to perturbations in an organism- and disease-specific manner

Abstract excerpt

Findings about chronic complex diseases are difficult to extrapolate from animal models to humans. We reason that organs may have core network modules that are preserved between species and are predictably altered when homeostasis is disrupted. To test this idea, we perturbed hepatic homeostasis in mice by dietary challenge and compared the liver transcriptome with that in human fatty liver disease and liver...
