METABOLISM

Understanding lipid metabolism through hepatic steat-omics

Nature Reviews Endocrinology volume 15, pages 321–322 (2019)Cite this article

Subjects

Alterations in lipid metabolism are closely linked to disorders such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. A multi-omics study on a mouse genetic reference panel uncovers regulatory networks and potential biomarkers of hepatic lipid metabolism.
