Abstract:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) develops from fatty liver to steatohepatitis during which multiple cell types may play different roles. Aiming to understand tissue composition of cell types, their gene expression and global gene regulation in the development of NAFLD, we performed single-nucleus and bulk ATAC-seq on the liver of rats fed with a high-fat diet. By machine learning, we divided global gene expression into modules, such that transcription factors in a module regulate a set of genes in the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
