Fig. 6. TRIM7 regulates steatohepatitis through the TAK1-JNK/p38 signaling pathway.
a Volcano plot showing the distribution of all detected genes from RNA sequencing in liver tissues of Trim7-HKO and Trim7-Flox mice after 14 weeks of HFD feeding (n = 3). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis was performed using the two-sided Wald test, which was selected to account for both potential upregulation and downregulation of genes between the two groups. Genes with a P-value < 0.05 and |log2 (fold change)|≥1.0 were defined as DEGs; red dots represent significantly upregulated DEGs, blue dots represent significantly downregulated DEGs, and black dots represent non-significant genes. b KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of the aforementioned DEGs. c, d Immunoblotting (c) and quantitative (d) analysis of the expression levels of the indicated proteins in liver tissues from NCD- or HFFC-fed Trim7-Flox, Trim7-HKO mice (left panel) and AAV8-injected mice (right panel) (n = 3; P values determined by one-way ANOVA). Data are presented as mean ± SD. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
