Attenuation of steatohepatitis, fibrosis, and carcinogenesis in mice fed a methionine‐choline deficient diet by CCAAT/enhancer‐binding protein homologous protein deficiency

Abstract

CHOP deficiency attenuated apoptosis, inflammation, fibrosis, and tumorigenesis under fat-loading conditions, indicating that a therapeutic strategy targeting CHOP might be effective for fat-induced liver injury and protecting against promotion of carcinogenesis in patients with liver steatosis.
