Acetyl-CoA metabolism drives epigenome change and contributes to carcinogenesis risk in fatty liver disease
2021-07-23
Abstract excerpt
The rate of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is increasing worldwide, but the steps in precancerous hepatocytes which lead to HCC driver mutations are not well understood. Here we provide evidence that metabolically-driven histone hyperacetylation in steatotic hepatocytes can increase DNA damage to initiate carcinogenesis. Genome-wide histone acetylation is increas...
