Adipose-derived microRNA-518a drives hepatic cholesterol dysregulation and hypertension-related vascular remodeling in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis via the MST1-AMPK-SREBP2 axis.
INTRODUCTION Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is characterized by disrupted hepatic lipid homeostasis and progressive liver injury, and frequently coexists with hypertension and systemic vascular remodeling, suggesting shared pathophysiological mechanisms. Although adipose tissue-derived microRNA...
