Osteoprotegerin deficiency aggravates methionine–choline-deficient diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in mice
Abstract Clinical studies have shown that osteoprotegerin (OPG) is reduced in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. The current study focuses on the role of OPG in the NASH pathogenesis. OPG knockout mice and wild-type control mice fed a methio...
