Elevated S-adenosylhomocysteine induces adipocyte dysfunction to promote alcohol-associated liver steatosis

Abstract It has been previously shown that chronic ethanol administration-induced increase in adipose tissue lipolysis and reduction in the secretion of protective adipokines collectively contribute to alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) pathogenesis. Further studies have revealed that increased...
