Lipid overloading during liver regeneration causes delayed hepatocyte DNA replication by increasing ER stress in mice with simple hepatic steatosis

摘要

Background and aimImpaired fatty liver regeneration has already been reported in many genetic modification models. However, in diet-induced simple hepatic steatosis, which showed similar phenotype with clinical pathology, whether liver regeneration is impaired or not remains unclear. In this study, we evaluated liver regeneration in mice with diet-induced simple hepatic steatosis, and focused on excess lipid accumulation occurring during liver regeneration.
