Enhancing Hepatic MBOAT7 Expression Does Not Improve Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis in Mice
2022-03-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background & Aims</h4> Genetic analyses of human NASH have revealed polymorphisms near the membrane bound O-acyl transferase domain containing 7 ( MBOAT7 ) gene associated with worsened liver injury. NAFLD/NASH also appears to decrease MBOAT7 expression or activity independent of these polymorphisms. Thus, we hypothesized that enhancing MBOAT7 function in NASH would improve pathology. <h4>Approach & Results...
