The multiple roles of KLF15 in liver disease are outlined. First, KLF15 plays an important role in acute liver injury, including the regulation of TIBL, ALT, AST, and inflammatory factors (COX-2, MCP-1, IL-1β, and TNF-α). With respect to hepatitis B virus, KLF15 positively regulates HBV major surface and core promoters, HBsAg and the core protein, as well as HBV DNA replication. Finally, the miR-431-5p/KLF15/p53 signaling pathway is a potential therapeutic target in autoimmune hepatitis.
