Bano S, Copeland M, Stoops J, Orr A, Jain S, Paranjpe S, et al.
Cell Mol Gastroenterol Hepatol . 2024 Jul; 18(4):101380. PMID: 39038606
Background & Aims: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has become the most prevalent chronic liver disorder, with no approved treatment. Our previous work demonstrated the efficacy of a pan-ErbB...

Mekala S, Rai R, Reed S, Bowen B, Michalopoulos G, Locker J, et al.
Cells . 2024 Apr; 13(7. PMID: 38607090
Background/aim: Activin A is involved in the pathogenesis of human liver diseases, but its therapeutic targeting is not fully explored. Here, we tested the effect of novel, highly specific small-molecule-based...

Melis M, Marino R, Tian J, Johnson C, Sethi R, Oertel M, et al.
Cell Mol Gastroenterol Hepatol . 2023 Nov; 17(3):453-479. PMID: 37993018
Background & Aims: HNF4α, a master regulator of liver development and the mature hepatocyte phenotype, is down-regulated in chronic and inflammatory liver disease. We used contemporary transcriptomics and epigenomics to...

Chen T, Dalton G, Oh S, Maeso-Diaz R, Du K, Meyers R, et al.
Cell Mol Gastroenterol Hepatol . 2022 Dec; 15(4):949-970. PMID: 36535507
Background & Aims: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a leading cause of cirrhosis, strongly associates with the metabolic syndrome, an insulin-resistant proinflammatory state that disrupts energy balance and promotes progressive liver degeneration....

Roy N, Alencastro F, Roseman B, Wilson S, Delgado E, May M, et al.
Am J Pathol . 2022 Jun; 192(9):1259-1281. PMID: 35718058
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an epidemic affecting 30% of the US population. It is characterized by insulin resistance, and by defective lipid metabolism and mitochondrial dysfunction in the...

Tian J, Locker J
Adv Exp Med Biol . 2022 May; 1360:87-99. PMID: 35505164
Injury and growth stimulation both remarkably increase the hepatic expression of Gadd45β. This contrasts with expression in liver cancer, where promoter methylation frequently silences Gadd45β, due to a suppressive function...

Koral K, Bhushan B, Orr A, Stoops J, Bowen W, Copeland M, et al.
Am J Pathol . 2022 Apr; 192(6):887-903. PMID: 35390317
Activation of constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) transcription factor by xenobiotics promotes hepatocellular proliferation, promotes hypertrophy without liver injury, and induces drug metabolism genes. Previous work demonstrated that lymphocyte-specific protein-1 (LSP1),...

Liao J, Coffman K, Locker J, Padiath Q, Nmezi B, Filipink R, et al.
Mol Genet Genomic Med . 2021 Mar; 9(4):e1647. PMID: 33666368
Background: Benign hereditary chorea (BHC) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by early-onset non-progressive involuntary movements. Although NKX2-1 mutations or deletions are the cause of BHC, some BHC families do...

Bhushan B, Molina L, Koral K, Stoops J, Mars W, Banerjee S, et al.
Hepatology . 2020 Aug; 73(5):2005-2022. PMID: 32794202
Background And Aims: Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) agonists, such as 1,4-bis [2-(3,5-dichloropyridyloxy)] benzene (TCPOBOP), are known to cause robust hepatocyte proliferation and hepatomegaly in mice along with induction of drug...
