Moreover, recovery of CircRNA-0046367 in steatosis HepG2 cells resulted in the significantly up-regulated translation and transcription levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα), which promoted transcription of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (CPT2) as well as an acyl-CoA binding domain containing three (ACBD3). Here, CPT2 is linked to steatosis.
