Endoplasmic reticulum stress induces hepatic steatosis through interaction between PPARα and FoxO6 in vivo and in vitro

Our original aims were to delineate the interrelation between the regulation of PPARα and the transcription factor FoxO6 pathway in relation to lipid metabolism at molecular levels. Evidence on high glucose promoted FoxO6 activation induced lipid accumulation in liver cells. The effect of PPARα activation of the insulin signaling. FoxO6 plays a pivotal role in hepatic lipid accumulation through inactivation of PPARα in FoxO6-overexpression mice.
