Downregulation of HNF4A enables transcriptomic reprogramming during the hepatic acute-phase response
Abstract The hepatic acute-phase response is characterized by a massive upregulation of serum proteins, such as haptoglobin and serum amyloid A, at the expense of liver homeostatic functions. Although the transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4A) has a well-established role in s...
