DDIT3 and Hepatic steatosis: Another study using (C/EBP) homologous protein (CHOP) C57BL/6 KO mice fed an FFC diet significantly attenuated hepatic steatosis after 4 weeks of liraglutide treatment in WT mice and showed that CHOPs play an important role in the protection of hepatocytes from diet-induced ER stress (160).
