About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0308
Species: human
Position : chr18:63121195-63123195
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Parenteral nutrition (pn) - associated liver disease (pnald)
Pubmed ID:  29761871
Enhancer experiment: Immunofluorescence staining,Oil red staining,Immunohistochemistry,TUNEL staining,Western blot
Enhancer experiment description: Autophagy was suppressed in the PNALD model, which was demonstrated by less light chain 3 fluorescence (LC3) puncta and lower LC3II expression. Rapamycin effectively induced hepatic autophagy in PN rats. The PN + Rapa group presented improved hepatic function, decreased pathology scores, and less steatosis than the PN group. In addition, rapamycin treatment decreased terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling and cleaved-caspase 3 expression, indicating a lower level of hepatocyte apoptosis. Compared with the PN group, the PN + Rapa group had lower levels of ROS and reduced expression of ER stress-related protein markers, such as BIP, sXBP1 and CHOP.

About Function

Enhancer function : Autophagy was suppressed in the PNALD model, which was demonstrated by less light chain 3 fluorescence (LC3) puncta and lower LC3II expression.
