Abstract
NORE1A (RASSF5) is a tumor suppressor that is frequently down-regulated in liver tumors. It is an upstream component of the HIPPO pathway, a key regulator of liver development and metabolism. HIPPO disruption can lead to the development of MASLD/MASH. While studying the phenotype of NORE1A knockout mice, we noticed that they exhibit no overt liver tumor phenotype, but have a strong propensity to develop fatty livers characteristic of MASLD/MASH. Additionally, knockdown of NORE1A in liver cells upregulates sterol regulator element binding protein 1 (SREBP1), whose deregulation is central to the development MASLD. Examination of primary human MASLD samples showed an inverse correlation between the expression of NORE1A protein and TAZ, a downstream effector of the HIPPO pathway. Thus, loss of NORE1A expression may contribute to the development of MASLD/MASH in humans and NORE1A knockout mice may provide a new MASLD/MASH model that more accurately mimics the human disease.
期刊介绍：
Transgenic Research focusses on transgenic and genome edited higher organisms. Manuscripts emphasizing biotechnological applications are strongly encouraged. Intellectual property, ethical issues, societal impact and regulatory aspects also fall within the scope of the journal. Transgenic Research aims to bridge the gap between fundamental and applied science in molecular biology and biotechnology for the plant and animal academic and associated industry communities.
Transgenic Research publishes
-Original Papers
-Reviews:
Should critically summarize the current state-of-the-art of the subject in a dispassionate way. Authors are requested to contact a Board Member before submission. Reviews should not be descriptive; rather they should present the most up-to-date information on the subject in a dispassionate and critical way. Perspective Reviews which can address new or controversial aspects are encouraged.
-Brief Communications:
Should report significant developments in methodology and experimental transgenic higher organisms
