Progressive loss of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha activity in chronic liver diseases in humans
10 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4α) is indispensable for hepatocyte differentiation and critical for maintaining liver health. Here, we demonstrate that loss of HNF4α activity is a crucial step in the pathogenesis of chronic liver diseases (CLDs) that lead to development of HCC. APPROACH AND RESULTS: We developed an HNF4α target gene signature, which can accurately determine HNF4α...
