NUP85 alleviates lipid metabolism and inflammation by regulating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

ABSTRACT: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the common causes of chronic liver disease in the world. The problem of NAFLD had become increasingly prominent. However, its pathogenesis is still indistinct. As we all know, NAFLD begins with the accumulation of triglyceride (TG), leading to fatty degeneration, inflammation and other liver tissues damage. Notably, structure of nucleoporin 85 (NUP85) is related to lipid metabolism and inflammation of liver diseases. In this study, the results of researches indicated that NUP85 played a critical role in NAFLD. Firstly, the expression level of NUP85 in methionine-choline-deficient (MCD)-induced mice increased distinctly, as well as the levels of fat disorder and inflammation. On the contrary, knockdown of NUP85 had the opposite effects.
