Deficiency of gluconeogenic enzyme PCK1 promotes metabolic-associated fatty liver disease through PI3K/AKT/PDGF axis activation in male mice

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (Pck1) is an enzyme involved in glucose production that also regulates lipogenesis and has been linked to liver steatosis. Here the authors report that deficiency of Pck1 in the liver leads to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease via activation of the RhoA/PI3K/AKT pa...

description Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (Pck1) is an enzyme involved in glucose production that also regulates lipogenesis and has been linked to liver steatosis. Here the authors report that deficiency of Pck1 in the liver leads to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease via activation of the RhoA/PI3K/AKT pathway in a study with male mice.
