About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0424
Species: human
Position : chr1:247413632-247415632
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Non alcoholic fatty liver disease, inflammation, liver fibrosis
Pubmed ID:  30208322
Enhancer experiment: qRT-PCR,weston blot
Enhancer experiment description: Emerging evidence suggests that the NACHT, LRR, and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in hepatocytes plays a role in the pathogenesis of liver diseases (Szabo and Csak, 2012; Szabo and Petrasek, 2015). Fxr deficiency in mice augmented the ability of ER stress to induce NLRP3 and thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP), whereas FXR ligand activation prevented it, ameliorating liver injury.

About Target gene

Target gene : NLRP3,TXNIP
