Amazing work from the Chaudhuri lab linking altered ER-mitochondria interactions with calcium signaling and antiviral responses in the context of MASH! Congratulations to the team!
✨Excess fat makes the liver act like it's under viral attack.✨
In a new publication in @jclinicalinvest , we describe how a maladaptive antiviral stress response causes liver injury in metabolic liver disease (MASH). 1/14

Professors @OlzmannLab and @apsarruda and colleagues have identified a previously unrecognized membrane-shaping protein that regulates whether fat is secreted or stored in liver cells.
