Role of hepatocyte RIPK1 in maintaining liver homeostasis during metabolic challenges by Weigao Zhang, Hu Liu, Danyang Zhang, Yuguo Yi, Liang Tao, Yunfeng Zhu, Shuxian Huang, Xunan Zhao, Qianchao Shao, Peiqi Li, Yiwen Weng, Wei Lu, Jianfa Zhang, Haibing Zhang, Yuxin Chen, Dan Weng

“…In this study, we identified Receptor interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) in hepatocytes as a critical regulator in preserving hepatic homeostasis during metabolic challenges, such as short-term fasting or high-fat dieting. Our results demonstrated that hepatocyte-specific deficiency of RIPK1 sensitized the liver to short-term fasting-induced liver injury and hepatocyte apoptosis in both male and female mice. …”
