Roles of IκB kinases and TANK-binding kinase 1 in hepatic lipid metabolism and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

Obesity: tracing the inflammation underlying liver disease A deeper understanding of the molecular processes underlying dysfunctional fatty-acid metabolism in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) could help protect patients from severe liver damage. NAFLD is a common consequence of obesity, and...
