2021-06-07
Abstract excerpt
Liver fibrosis occurs during chronic liver disease. Advanced liver fibrosis results in cirrhosis, liver failure and often requires liver transplantation. However, due to the lack of human models, mechanisms underlining the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis remain unclear. Recent studies implicated a central role of deranged lipid metabolism in its pathogenesis. In this study, we generated LEPTIN-deficient ( LEPTIN...
