UDP-glucuronate metabolism controls RIPK1-driven liver damage in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Abstract Hepatocyte apoptosis plays an essential role in the progression of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying hepatocyte apoptosis remain unclear. Here, we identify UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase (UGDH) as a suppressor of NASH-associated liver damage by i...
