p53 family controls several metabolic and cellular functions. The p63 member regulates lipid metabolism in hepatocytes and contributes to the development of liver steatosis. Here we show that p63 plays an important role in liver fibrosis. P63 is upregulated in patients with NASH, correlating positively with fibrosis score and collagen 1a1 expression. P63 expression is also increased in different animal models of diet-induced NASH and chemically induced liver fibrosis. Mice wit...

Development and progression of liver diseases, from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to steatohepatitis (NASH), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), seem to be accompanied by a dysregulation of the expression of alternative splicing variants (SVs) and appearance of aberrant SVs. The splicing factor 3B subunit 1 (SF3B1) represents a crucial player for the functional assembly of the spliceosome, the core machinery that controls the splicing process, and its activity can ...
