As anticipated, expression of the 3′UTR fragment of Uqcrb mRNA (Supplementary Fig. 17) ameliorated the effect of HFD in inducing the levels of proteins HuR, APOB-100, APOB-48, CYCS, NDUFB6, and UQCRB (Supplementary Fig. 18a–b), but it enhanced the HFD-induced NAFLD phenotype (Supplementary Fig. 18c–d). Here, APOB is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
