2021-09-29
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) has emerged as a leading cause of chronic liver disease. The incomplete understanding of NASH fibrosis limits pharmacotherapy development. Here we report a molecular link between hepatocytes and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in regulating the progression of liver fibrosis via CREBZF-osteopontin (OPN) axis. Hepatocyte-specific CREBZF knockout (CREBZF L...
