A Critical Role for the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in Hepatic Stellate Cell Activation

Listed in NCBI GEO

Activated hepatic stellate cells are the primary mediators of the development of fibrosis in a variety of chronic liver diseases.

Description

Genetic inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier, which catalyzes an important step in intermediary metabolism, suppresses hepatic stellate cell activation. These studies identify new metabolic mechanisms that regulate stellate cell function and highlight the potential of targeting mitochondrial metabolism for treating fibrotic liver disease.
