LAPTM5 and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis: Subsequently, the gene expression of Laptm5 in NASH or non-NASH was detected by the qPCR and the result exhibited, unexpectedly, that the mRNA levels of Laptm5 were comparable in both in vivo and in vitro models, indicating LAPTM5 was post-transcriptionally regulated in response to metabolic stimulation (Supplementary Fig. 1h-j).
