Insulin/Snail1 axis ameliorates fatty liver disease by epigenetically suppressing lipogenesis

Insulin promotes lipogenesis but, on the other hand, insulin resistance is associated with increased lipogenesis in the liver. Here the authors show that Snail1 is upregulated by insulin and inhibits lipogenesis by repressing Fasn expression but insulin-mediated Snail1 upregulation is impaired durin...

Sumario:Insulin promotes lipogenesis but, on the other hand, insulin resistance is associated with increased lipogenesis in the liver. Here the authors show that Snail1 is upregulated by insulin and inhibits lipogenesis by repressing Fasn expression but insulin-mediated Snail1 upregulation is impaired during obesity and insulin resistance.
