Glutathione S-transferase Mu 2 inhibits hepatic steatosis via ASK1 suppression

Jin et al. investigate the underlying mechanisms of hepatic steatosis and show that Glutathione-S-transferase mu 2 (GSTM2), which is a drug metabolizing enzyme (DME), is upregulated in hepatic steatosis tissue from mice fed with a high fat diet. They show that GSTM2 is a negative regulator of hepati...
