Bmal1 Inhibits Phenotypic Transformation of Hepatic Stellate Cells in Liver Fibrosis via IDH1/α-KG-Mediated Glycolysis

Scientists showed that glycolysis was significantly enhanced, while the expression of brain and muscle arnt-like protein-1 (Bmal1) was downregulated in fibrotic liver tissues of mice, primary Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)-induced LX2 cells.
