Overlapping yet Distinct Functions of VMP1 and TMEM41B in Modulating Hepatic Lipoprotein Secretion and Autophagy

Allen Chen, Khue P. Nguyen, Mengwei Niu…·Hong‐Min Ni

This study investigates the distinct roles of VMP1 and TMEM41B in hepatic lipoprotein secretion and autophagy, showing that VMP1 has a more critical role in regulating these processes in MASLD.

Disruption of Mitochondrial Dynamics and Stasis Leads to Liver Injury and Tumorigenesis

Xiaowen Ma, Xiaoli Wei, Mengwei Niu…·Wen‐Xing Ding

This study shows that disrupting mitochondrial fission (DRP1) leads to liver injury and tumorigenesis, while loss of fusion proteins has less impact, and triple knockout mice show reduced tumor development.
