Targeting uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 in liver disease: Current research and future directions.

Abstract

The current letter to the editor pertains to the manuscript entitled 'Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 prevents the progression of liver injury'. Increased levels of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 during liver injury could mitigate damage by reducing endoplasmic reticulum stress, oxidative stress, and dysregulated lipid metabolism, impeding hepatocyte apoptosis and necroptosis.
