description | To investigate the role of hepatic Pck1 in diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), liver-specific Pck1-knockout mice were developed with Alb-Cre. Wild-type (WT) and Pck1-cKO mice were fed a Chow diet (Research Diets, D12450J: 10% Kcal fat, with tap water) or NASH-inducing diet (Research Diets, D12492: 60% Kcal fat, with drinking water containig 23.1 g/L fructose and 18.9 g/L glucose) for 24 weeks. RNA was extracted from the livers of mice from all treatment groups and used for RNA seqencing. RNA-seq data demonstrated that gluconeogenic enzyme PCK1 deficiency played an important role in the development of NASH. Use RNA-sequencing to investigate the role of Pck1 in diet-induced NASH on a transcriptomic level, by comparing the livers of WT and Pck1-cKO mice fed a Chow or NASH diet for 24 weeks using Illumina technology. |
